Hurricane Florence inflicted one of the hardest hurricane punches our state has ever seen. My wife Renee and I are continuing to pray for our state and the safety of you and your family. Like you, we are absolutely heartbroken by the damage, destruction and loss of life. I’ve traveled to every county in our district and the devastation from the catastrophic rainfall and flooding, damaging winds, and devastating storm surge is truly unimaginable.
