Kean, Jr. | K000398 | kean.house.gov | kean | https://kean.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Contact: Dan Scharfenberger (September 22, 2023) WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Rep. Tom Kean, Jr. (R-NJ) sent a letter to Congressional Leaders in support of a supplemental appropriations bill to replenish the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Disaster Relief Fund (DRF), and to help individuals, businesses, and agricultural producers recover from recent disasters throughout the United States, including the devastating flooding in Warren County, New Jersey. Over the weekend of July 15th, 2023, significant rainfall and ensuing flooding and mudslides damaged numerous roads, and thoroughfares were impassable and temporarily closed. Additionally, 2,500 New Jerseyans were immediately without power, and while Jersey Central Power & Light Co mobilized resources from across the state to address this issue, many residents are still without power. FEMA expects the Disaster Relief Fund to be exhausted soon, causing the agency to prioritize existing funding in the interim for response efforts. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:37:48Z |
