"Regulations should not impose unnecessary burdens on the economy, on individuals, on public and private organizations, or on State and local governments."

"The people of Houston and Southeast Texas suffered more than we have in any--many storms, in certainly my memory."

"I think it is thinking outside the box, which government should do more of and doesn't do very well."

"All of us are immensely grateful to the work that FEMA has done to help the people of Houston to Southeast Texas who suffered from this catastrophic rain event."
