in the northern part of my district it was north of the eye didn t have as much storm surge but obviously as you have seen pictures south of fort myers. storm surge. hopefully they heeded the evacuation calls. the priority on power is obviously hospitals first and then nursing homes and rehab facilities. a lot of those are back up. all of our hospitals are up. a lot of the nursing homes and rehab facilities are up. i still personally do not have power. we are at about half a million that still do not have power. that pales in comparison to the 2 million floridians that didn t have power when the storm hit. so everywhere you go in my district, you see a line truck, power company is trying to get out and get power to people. trying to get some semblance of life back. there are places in my district that will never be the same. certainly never look the same. that s the sad reality we are facing and you are facing, congressman. meantime, want to get your calls on this. fears growing that
prisons and more police. than white people and the opioid crisis came along, the budget used like rehab facilities, and people were interested in how they felt and what led to? this i m never seen people going into crack houses talking about how do you feel and let s bring you some meals. the disparity here is outrageous. it s outrageous. what can be done about this for the folks watching? those that might feel powerless as the congress might do nothing? we can we do to make congress act? i just want to say congress has a lot of issues on its plate. this inflation, gun, violence voting, rights police reforms. all these things that we want them to get done. the truth is there is a division in the country. we are divided. congress has failed over and over to address these issues. but on this one, despite all the bad things that we just talked, about there is brought consensus to fix this.
