Not only that - he calls such funding "immoral"
From the 2011 Republican debates (noticed by Slate) when Mitt Romney was asked about federal disaster relief to the then recent tornado and flood victims (this was in June of 2011 after a disaster plagued season) and called such spending "immoral".. Note that FEMA was considered one of the best run federal agencies until Bush got ahold of it in 2000 and beyond.
