On the recordSeptember 13, 2018
As Hurricane Florence threatens to strike South Carolina, I am grateful to Governor Henry McMaster, Adjutant General Bob Livingston, Attorney General Alan Wilson, as well as Kim Stenson, Director of the Emergency Management Division, who have all done a fantastic job of preparing for the high winds and extraordinary flooding, while keeping the people of the State up to date with the encouragement of President Donald Trump. I appreciate that the Governor has been in close coordination with President Donald Trump and together they are working to ensure South Carolinians have all the resources for the courageous first responders to respond to Hurricane Florence, which endangers families. The projected phenomenal rainfall will cause unexpected flooding, so we should be ready for higher elevation with only emergency travel through next week, as roads will be deadly, as citizens should stay in place. FOX News is providing accurate coverage. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
