Mayorkas: Misinformation ‘Is Demoralizing to the Men and Women at the Federal Level’

BOLDUAN: “And this is important because there has been fear that this misinformation would be detrimental to those who are affected. And you’re saying you are seeing evidence that these rumors are setting in and people are not seeking the aid that is available to them because of these false rumors?”
Mayorkas: “That is indeed the case, Kate, and I will tell you another negative impact of this deliberately false information. It is demoralizing to the men and women at the federal level, at the state and local level, who are actually risking their lives to save others and to bring much needed relief to those who need it.”
BOLDUAN: “And another hurricane bearing down right now. Secretary Mayorkas, thank you so much.”
