If you are able to get in touch with your loved ones in Asheville and other places, remind them to document as much of their damage as they possibly can so it’ll strengthen their FEMA claims. It may not sound important now, but it will be in the near future.

Too often our justice system is a revolving door for those struggling with addiction & mental health issues.
Today I'm calling on @CMSGov to approve pending Section 1115 waivers that would empower states to deliver pre-release care—effectively reducing recidivism & saving lives.
