On the recordNovember 14, 2013
Today my thoughts are with the victims of Super Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. The typhoon ravaged the Philippines, bringing sustained winds that reached 175 miles per hour and storm surges reaching 13 feet. In the aftermath, reports have confirmed more than 2,300 dead; but the number could be far larger. Haiyan wiped out roads, electricity, and communications in much of the country. Mayors are faced with unthinkable decisions, like choosing between transporting in food and relief supplies or transporting out the bodies of victims. When those in the other parts of the globe are in need due to disaster, the United States always lends a hand. Right now, the Philippines are in need. I urge Members of Congress and all members of this United States of America to continue opening their hearts to provide critical support to the recovery efforts. ____________________
