"I'm grateful that Kimble, Mason, and Menard counties have been added to President Trump's Major Disaster Declaration for Public Assistance," said Congressman August Pfluger (TX-11). "These communities have faced difficult challenges from recent flooding, and I've heard directly from local leaders about the impact on their communities. This designation gives local governments the federal resources they need to repair public infrastructure and support their communities' recovery. My team and I have been in close contact with county officials since the flooding began, working to ensure they received the resources they need. I'm always proud to be a Texan—especially in moments like this, when I see our community come together when it matters most."
