@no1marauder saidyou cant lie out of this…
No he didn't; "requesting assistance" (which the Feds have provided plenty of) isn't making a formal request for a disaster declaration which requires the admissions the statute lays out. From your own link:
"Earlier in the day, US Sen. Sherrod Brown called for Gov. DeWine to declare the East Palestine train derailment as a disaster."
From Brown's letter to DeWine: ...[text shortened]... rrod-brown-calls-mike-dewine-east-palestine-train-derailment/95-2f9ea84f-144c-4ba5-aa1e-07c934ad8112
“The DeWine Administration has been in daily contact with FEMA to discuss the need for federal support, however FEMA continues to tell Governor DeWine that Ohio is not eligible for assistance at this time. Governor DeWine will continue working with FEMA to determine what assistance can be provided”
you just cant tell the truth can you 💩weasel?
@mott-the-hoople saidThat's a DeWine press release which omits the fact that "at this time" the Governor still hasn't done what is required to request a disaster declaration from the President.

But he can't until DeWine formally requests one AND takes further steps including direct implementation of the state's emergency plan. And the Governor still hasn't done so.
The Feds have been sending in personnel in response to the accident since Day 1. Trump's showboating announcement changed nothing.
