I would say to my friend, most of the things that are listed here emergencywise--they are not coming to Democratic States. We have had these acts of God in most instances that happen where they happen. We have two Senators from Tennessee, and this has nothing to do with partisanship.

I will do what I can to work with the Senator and Senator Wyden to make sure we take care of Oregon.
