Whitmer seeks federal disaster for Michigan after flooding
LANSING, Mich. (AP) â Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer is asking the White House for a disaster declaration to secure federal aid to deal with damage from last monthâs flooding in southeast Michigan. Parts of the region saw about 7 inches of rain over a 12-hour period between the night of June 25 and the morning of June 26. Whitmerâs office said Tuesday if federal aid is granted, the money would be used for temporary housing and home repairs, low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses and other programs to help people and businesses recover from the flooding damage. Whitmer issued an emergency declaration that will be in place until July 24.

Jordan Kenneth Kamp was born an artist.
“He was such a good artist at preschool that the teacher would say we never had anybody draw with the detail this 3-year-old draws with,” said his mother, Sheryl Kamp.
Drawing was one way for Jordan Kamp to express himself. As he grew older, he got immersed in a different type of storytelling, acting.
With his light heart and unique sense of humor, he became a familiar face on TV commercials, theater and cinema.
“I found an identity with being artistic, so I guess that’s where it started,” Kamp said.
His first performance was a one-act play, Hello, Dolly, at Orrville High School where he played Horace Vandergelder.
