This week, I had the opportunity to tour and survey the damage caused by the recent flooding in Hocking and Vinton County.
Seeing the impact firsthand and hearing directly from residents and local officials is an important part of understanding what our communities are facing.
Our neighbors have been through a lot, and recovery will take time. I’m grateful for the first responders, local officials, volunteers, and everyone working around the clock to help their communities recover and rebuild.
My office will continue working with local, state, and federal partners to make sure the needs of OH-02 communities are heard and that we do everything we can to help during the recovery.
We are here, we are listening, and we will continue to stand with each of you.
