UPDATE:
President Trump formally nominated Cameron Hamilton to lead FEMA on May 11, 2026.
President Donald Trump is expected to nominate Cameron Hamilton to serve as administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, nearly a year after he was removed as its acting head following testimony to Congress in which he defended the agency’s existence.
Hamilton went to the White House on Wednesday with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin for a meeting with Trump to discuss FEMA opportunities, according to an administration official. But, the Department of Homeland Security told NBC News it has “no personnel announcements to make at this time.”
The White House declined to comment and Hamilton did not respond to a request for comment.
