SOUTH DAKOTA’S CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION IS ASKING PRESIDENT BIDEN TO ISSUE A MAJOR DISASTER DECLARATION FOR THE STATE.
THE REQUEST FOLLOWS SEVERE STORMS AND FLOODING FROM JUNE 16TH THROUGH JULY 8TH THAT CAUSED TENS-OF-MILLIONS-OF-DOLLARS IN DAMAGE.
A LETTER FROM SENATORS JOHN THUNE, MIKE ROUNDS AND CONGRESSMAN DUSTY JOHNSON WAS SENT FRIDAY.
THEY ASKED FOR A QUICK REVIEW OF GOVERNOR KRISTI NOEM’S REQUEST FOR FEDERAL AID FOR IMPACTED PARTS OF THE STATE INCLUDING 25 COUNTIES AND FIVE TRIBAL NATIONS.
