Becca Balint Statement on Devastating Vermont Floods | 2023-07-10 | 2023 | 2023-07 | Democrat | House | VT | Becca Balint | B001318 | balint.house.gov | balint | https://balint.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | “As we continue to face significant and damaging flooding, I want to thank the emergency responders and hardworking state employees across Vermont who are working tirelessly to keep our communities safe. My focus right now is ensuring Vermonters stay safe and know that my office is here to support with any resources people may need. This is a difficult time for our state with so many people, especially in vulnerable communities, struggling; please stay safe and avoid unnecessary risk to allow first responders to focus on urgent rescues. I’m in contact with Governor Scott’s office and will be coordinating with him to determine what federal resources may be needed to assist in emergency response and future recovery. Please continue to follow guidance from Vermont Emergency Management (vtalert.gov), certainly while the Flash Flood Advisory remains place until Tuesday at 1pm. Vermonters can call 211 if you need assistance with evacuations or any flood related emergencies. Vermont Alert delivers updated weather, road, and other warnings via text or email. You can register for free at www.vtalert.gov. So many people across the state are experiencing damage to their property and their communities. As flood conditions continue, I want to remind Vermonters to take care of themselves both physically and mentally. Many of us are reminded of the pain Tropical Storm Irene caused our communities in 2011. It is critical we take care of ourselves and our neighbors in the days to come as we begin to recover from the storm.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:18:03Z |
