The pending loss of housing assistance from FEMA and Red Cross for Puerto Rican families displaced by Hurricane Maria is forcing them to seek solutions.
Some families who are staying in hotels in the Pioneer Valley requested help on Thursday at the Springfield offices of Senators Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren ahead of the deadlines within the next week.
The two senators did release a joint statement indicating they are continuing to press FEMA for both immediate relief and a longer-term solution.
