The HMGP grants would have helped rebuilding communities prevent future disasters.\n\n\u201cThe Trump administration should reverse this decision,\u201d said Hickenlooper. \u201cRequests for individual assistance and hazard mitigation grants are not made frivolously. These resources are what\u2019s needed to help Colorado families and communities recover and prevent future tragedies. We will continue standing with those impacted by these horrific fires and do everything we can to support them in their hour of need.\u201d\n\nThe Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) previously approved Colorado\u2019s request for Public Assistance following the Aspen Acres and Gold Mountain fires. Earlier this month, FEMA also released $97 million to help Colorado communities recover from past disasters and mitigate future ones.\n\n###", 1, "2026-09-20T09:37:28Z", "2026-09-20T09:38:59Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.hickenlooper.senate.gov/press_releases/hickenlooper-calls-on-trump-administration-to-reverse-colorado-disaster-aid-denials/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9278310462832451, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
