The firing came at the direction of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, the sources said.<\/p>\n<p>A FEMA spokesperson confirmed Hamilton &#8220;is no longer serving&#8221; as the agency&#8217;s leader. David Richardson, another DHS official who acted as Assistant Secretary for DHS&#8217; Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office, will now head the agency in an acting capacity, the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>The dismissal came one day after Hamilton publicly testified that he did not support scrapping FEMA, as President Trump and members of his administration have <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-getting-rid-of-fema-visits-north-carolina-california\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">suggested<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I do not believe it is in the best interests of the American people to eliminate the Federal Emergency Management Agency,&#8221; Hamilton said at a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing on Capitol Hill, Wednesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a separate hearing a day earlier, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told the same committee that Mr. Trump believes &#8220;FEMA, as it exists today, should be eliminated \u2014 empowering states to respond to disasters with federal government support.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-getting-rid-of-fema-visits-north-carolina-california\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">said days after taking office<\/a><\/span> he planned to &#8220;begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA, or maybe getting rid of FEMA,&#8221; criticizing the agency for allegedly responding slowly to natural disasters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president later <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2025\/01\/council-to-assess-the-federal-emergency-management-agency\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">ordered a review<\/a> of FEMA, tasking Noem and other administration officials with assessing the agency&#8217;s performance and considering &#8220;whether FEMA can serve its functions as a support agency, providing supplemental Federal assistance, to the States rather than supplanting State control of disaster relief.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"content__meta--contributors\">\n      <em><\/p>\n<p>                                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/michael-kaplan\/\" class=\"byline__author__link\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Michael  Kaplan<\/a><\/p>\n<p>        contributed to this report.<br \/>\n      <\/em>\n    <\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/nicole-sganga\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Nicole  Sganga<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__image\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/nicole-sganga\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n              <span class=\"img \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/15\/bba22054-44fe-4c44-9324-a7095fac5c81\/thumbnail\/80x80\/349661264ac36b68de0ea99742ed8d42\/headshot-600-nicole-sganga.jpg?v=e61856d8e666e7ed5709adc37bb2d465#\" alt=\"headshot-600-nicole-sganga.jpg \" height=\"80\" width=\"80\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/15\/bba22054-44fe-4c44-9324-a7095fac5c81\/thumbnail\/80x80\/349661264ac36b68de0ea99742ed8d42\/headshot-600-nicole-sganga.jpg?v=e61856d8e666e7ed5709adc37bb2d465 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/04\/15\/bba22054-44fe-4c44-9324-a7095fac5c81\/thumbnail\/160x160\/f01d7082a31d0fedbdede7ae4829406c\/headshot-600-nicole-sganga.jpg?v=e61856d8e666e7ed5709adc37bb2d465 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><br \/>\n            <\/a>\n          <\/div>\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Nicole Sganga is CBS News&#8217; homeland security and justice correspondent.
