WASHINGTON—The Federal Emergency Management Agency, the coordinator of the government’s coronavirus response, entered the crisis with thousands of unfilled positions and the leadership of its parent department singularly focused on immigration.

... FEMA lies within the Department of Homeland Security, a sprawling agency with responsibilities that span terrorism, cybersecurity, immigration and borders.

FEMA, which is tasked with handling disasters, has seen funds diverted toward immigration enforcement and has faced difficulty recruiting, worsening management shortcomings
...
“President Trump, because of his outsized focus on the border, has essentially turned the Department of Homeland Security into the ‘Department of Immigration Enforcement,’” said David Lapan, who served as the department’s spokesman under John Kelly, President Trump’s first Homeland Security secretary. He added that the focus on one subset of the DHS mission would lead funding to flow to that priority.
