This funding will provide swift aid to communities across the nation that have been impacted by Hurricane Ian and other natural disasters. This funding would become available to North Carolina if President Biden issues a Major Disaster Declaration for the state.\n\n\u201cAs Hurricane Ian moves through the United States and affects millions of people in North Carolina and across the country, it\u2019s critical that we give our first responders and local officials the resources they need to respond quickly,\u201d said Congresswoman Ross. \u201cPeople are relying on their government for help. In the days ahead as we assess the extent of the damage, I am praying for all communities impacted by Hurricane Ian and hoping these funds will help bring a swift recovery.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T03:08:33Z"]], "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://ross.house.gov/2022/9/congresswoman-ross-votes-disaster-relief-funding-communities-impacted"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2326689902693033, "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"}
