July 21, 2017

Today, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder announced that he is asking the federal government for a major disaster declaration for the state following the severe flooding in mid Michigan last month.

Congressman John Moolenaar previously called for this decision and made the following statement today:

"I welcome the state's decision to ask for federal assistance to help rebuild following the severe flooding in mid Michigan last month. I have been in contact with FEMA since the flooding occurred and the agency has been very responsive, including its preliminary assessment. I hope federal, state and local officials will continue the exemplary work they have done in response to the flooding."
