Staff can also assist flood victims in following up on disaster assistance applications with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Constituents are encouraged to bring any relevant documentation with them, such as proof of residency and identification, to streamline the process. For those unable to attend pop-up office hours, assistance remains available at Senator Blackburn’s state offices or at https://www.blackburn.senate.gov/helene. For more information on pop-up office hours, please contact (423) 753-4009.
