President Donald Trump has again denied a request from Colorado’s governor to help people affected by wildfires and flooding. Trump initially rejected the state's Democratic governor, Jared Polis, after Polis sought the major disaster declaration last year. This week, Trump rejected Polis again on appeal. Polis and other Democratic governors accuse Trump of playing politics with disaster aid. White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson denies the charge. Researcher Andrew Rumbach with the Urban Institute think tank says Trump approves major disaster aid to Republican-leaning states at about twice the rate as Democratic ones. But Rumbach says he is not certain there is clear political bias.
