The
effects of Hurricane Harvey will be felt in Texas, Louisiana, and other
parts of the country for
many months and years to come. So far, 1.7 million people are under
orders to evacuate their homes, and, as the floodwater in Houston rises,
sadly, so will the number of evacuees.
I
want to be able to offer my help and support in the most productive way
possible, not through just
words, but also action. What I found to be the most profound during
the visit was not only the strength and resilience of the people of
Texas, but the compassion and sense of community that has taken over the
State. My thoughts and prayers continue to be
with the people of Texas and Louisiana.
