Today, I reached out to elected leaders from communities impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton to hear directly from them on their recovery – and to ensure they’re getting everything they need from my team.

We will continue to support these communities for as long as it takes.

Today, I reached out to elected leaders from communities affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton to hear firsthand about their recovery progress and challenges. My priority is to ensure that every impacted area is receiving the resources and assistance they need, and I wanted to personally connect with these leaders to understand their immediate needs and long-term goals. From critical infrastructure repairs to providing mental health support and housing assistance, we are committed to delivering comprehensive support that will empower these communities to rebuild stronger and more resilient than ever.

My team is actively collaborating with local officials, organizations, and residents to make sure that no one falls through the cracks and that recovery efforts are sustainable. Together, we will overcome these obstacles, and we will stand by these communities for as long as it takes to restore what was lost and build a foundation for future growth and safety.
