Native American tribes are screwed both ways because they're not getting direct aid like the states, and they can't afford to bid like the states, either.
Adding to what @weijia is reporting below, a FEMA spokesperson told me: this is not the way we usually do it. FEMA usually gives to the state. Directly. Now 50% of what FEMA is flying in from overseas goes to private companies which sell it to states that offer the highest dollarhttps://twitter.com/weijia/status/1247925757193658375 …

Isn’t FEMA acquiring this stuff with tax dollars? How can they give it to private companies?

Same thing FEMA did in Puerto Rico for María, right? Said they can't destabilize the private sector so they had to supply private businesses before municipalities and shelters?

And the much needed water supplies sat in an airport warehouse?
