The Federal Government doesn't step in until formally requested by the state - which Gov. Brown hasn't done yet.
FEMA is already there with Region 9 responding for help with housing shelters, etc...The President is not allowed by law to step in unless requested
All these people screaming about failures ought to know that the Federal Govt is not mommy....they dont make things "all better" when it comes to operating a Republic - that's why states rights are so important
