The Governor is seeking Public Assistance for Jasper, Polk, Story, and Warren counties, after severe weather over the first days of July produced high winds, severe flash flooding, and massive overtopping across central Iowa\u2019s river basins which damaged public infrastructure and private property.\n\n\u201cThe damage to public and private property due to these severe weather events is beyond what local governments can or should be expected to carry alone,\u201d said Rep. Nunn. \u201cOur team is working with county and city leaders and the Governor\u2019s office to move this request forward, and we\u2019ll keep working at every level of government \u2014 local, state, and federal \u2014 until Iowans have the help they need to rebuild.\u201d\n\nUnder the Governor\u2019s request, Public Assistance would help rebuild damaged public infrastructure and facilities and cover emergency cleanup costs in Jasper, Polk, Story, and Warren counties. The request also seeks statewide Hazard Mitigation Assistance to support projects that improve future disaster recovery.\n\nThe full letter is available here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-06T07:37:31Z", "2026-08-06T07:38:34Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://nunn.house.gov/2026/08/05/nunn-iowa-delegation-call-on-president-trump-to-approve-disaster-aid-for-flooded-central-iowa-counties/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.710346968844533, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
