“With no staff there to run the formula, no staff there to administer the award, I don’t know how that money will go out,” he said.
LIHEAP supporters raised concerns about the potential hold-up of funding that Congress allocated to assist low-income Americans – especially with summer heat approaching.
“The question becomes, ‘if there’s no program staff, do you still allocate the funds to the states?’ or do you say, ‘Well, sorry, there’s no program staff. I guess we can’t give you the money,’” said Mark Wolfe, executive director of the National Energy Assistance Directors Association. “If that’s not the intent, then you’re causing havoc to a program that helps over 6 million very poor families heat and cool their homes. There’s no precedent for this.”
“My fear is that quietly in their homes, grandmothers will die this summer,” said Katrina Metzler, executive director of the National Energy & Utility Affordability Coalition.
