FEMA Gives Hurricane Evacuees Extra Month - Yahoo! News: "WASHINGTON - Stung by complaints it was pushing hurricane victims out before the holidays, FEMA extended its hotel housing program Tuesday by a month in 10 states where most of the homeless evacuees sought shelter after Katrina and Rita.
More than 46,000 families in those states now have until Jan. 7 to move out of hotels and into travel trailers, mobile homes or apartments until they find permanent homes. The deadline comes much sooner — Dec. 15 — for 3,500 other households scattered nationwide, before the
Federal Emergency Management Agency stops paying their hotel bills."
