The damage has overwhelmed local communities, placing a tremendous burden on them that far exceeds their capacity to recover without federal assistance.
Protecting Missouri's most vulnerable children is one of our highest responsibilities, and the people doing this work deserve clear, consistent standards across every agency, courtroom, and community," said Governor Kehoe.
“Missouri’s first responders once again answered the call with extraordinary bravery, professionalism, and compassion, rescuing hundreds of Missourians from dangerous floodwaters," said Governor Kehoe.
To every local, state, and federal first responder and law enforcement officer, citizen-soldier, and state agency team member who contributed to the safety and success of hosting events of this magnitude — thank you.
