The House Oversight and Accountability Committee announced plans to investigate President Joe Biden’s handling of the recent Maui, Hawaii, wildfires.

In a statement, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) said the federal response to the wildfire raises “serious questions” to which people “deserve answers.” He added that it is well within the scope of the committee, as it takes into account the efficacy of taxpayer dollars.

“The response by federal, state, and local officials to the catastrophic wildfire in Maui raises serious questions, and Americans, especially those impacted by this tragedy, deserve answers,” Comer said.

“As recovery efforts continue, the House Oversight Committee has a responsibility to ensure taxpayer dollars are being used efficiently and effectively. To minimize the risk of waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars, the Oversight Committee will examine the federal government’s response in Maui and work with other committees of jurisdiction to ensure accountability,” he said.
