The Houston Chronicle rebuked Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem\u2019s response to the recent deadly floods in Texas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It published an editorial Monday, which was sarcastically titled, \u201cHeck of a job, Secretary Noem.\u201d<\/p>\n

The newspaper\u2019s editorial board drew a stark contrast between grassroots fundraising efforts by Texans and what it described as an apparent lack of urgency in Washington, D.C., to assist with the recovery.<\/p>\n

While \u201cTexans are stepping up to do what we can to help our neighbors in need,\u201d the editorial said, \u201csome officials in Washington are more focused on saving cash.\u201d<\/p>\n

The board condemned reports that cuts to the Federal Emergency Management Agency\u2019s budget had left some flood victims unable to reach emergency lines.<\/p>\n
