What are the chances any cost "savings" by dramatically cutting back FEMA will see those tax dollars heading back to the states and local jurisdictions to fill the gap?

I'm curious, if asked, would you participate in the FEMA review panel? Why or why not?
For me, I lack confidence in the process and my time is better spent preparing for change at my local level, where disasters really hurt.

Spring is the typical season for rivers overflow their banks in Western Washington. It's often triggered by the combination of heavy rains and an increase in runoff from melting snow. Never drive through a flooded street as there may collapsed roadway you can't see. buff.ly/2ApOdqr

Our friends at Kitsap Public Health District posted a reminder that storms can cause power outages, flooding, sewage pollution, and other hazards.
On their site, you can learn how to safely use generators, keep food safe, make water safe to drink, and take care of your septic system during a storm.
