FEMA is offering to airlift hurricane victims in Puerto Rico to temporary housing on the United States mainland, nearly two months after the island was pummeled by a monstrous storm. At least 3,000 people remain in shelters on the island. According to the Transitional Shelter Assistance program, FEMA will provide “short-term lodging assistance for evacuees who are not able to return home for an extended or indeterminate period of time following a disaster.” A FEMA spokesperson reportedly told ABC News that the host-state agreements will likely include Florida and New York.
