MADISON, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Gov. Tony Evers announced that President Donald Trump has denied the state's application for FEMA relief from April's flooding. 

In a news release, Evers slammed the Trump administration for "playing politics."  

Evers then called the denial a "slap in the face" and committed to "continue to fight every day to get Wisconsin every cent we believe we are due." 

The Evers administration plans to appeal the decision within the next 30 days. 

Gov. Evers' full quote reads: 

“Donald Trump is basically telling Wisconsinites that millions of dollars in damages our communities have suffered due to tornadoes, storms, and flooding isn’t bad enough or high enough—it’s a slap in the face. States including Wisconsin send our tax dollars to the federal government so that if we need them in an emergency, we can get the help and the support we need back home, but it’s clear Trump and his administration only care about states that help him politically, and that’s breathtaking,” said Gov. Evers. “We are going to continue to fight every day to get Wisconsin every cent we believe we are due. We will be appealing this decision, and I implore FEMA to reevaluate their findings and grant Wisconsin’s full request expeditiously and without any further delay.”
