Texas Senators Push for Flood Aid | Lubbock News

Published 3 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

Texas senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn are urgently calling for a major disaster declaration after catastrophic floods devastated the Hill Country, destroying nearly 600 homes, claiming two lives, and causing damage estimated at nearly half a billion dollars. They’re seeking expanded federal aid—including Hazard Mitigation Grants, SBA loans, and tax relief—to help communities still recovering from last year’s deadly floods that killed over 130 people. With FEMA and IRS cooperation already pledged, the senators aim to fast-track relief as local organizations step in to support those rebuilding their lives.
