With last week's threat of Hurricane Dorian to South Carolina, I am grateful to the State officials who worked to prepare the people of South Carolina. I appreciate Governor Henry McMaster, Adjutant General Van McCarty, Secretary of Transportation Christy Hall, Attorney General Alan Wilson, as well as Kim Stenson, the director of the Emergency Management Division. As the hurricane approached, I went by to thank all of the State and Federal personnel in the South Carolina Emergency Management Division at Pine Ridge. The work this division achieves is vital to the safety of thousands of South Carolinians, and I commend them on their vigilance and around-the-clock attention. I am grateful that Governor McMaster closely coordinated with President Trump and continuously kept the people of South Carolina up- to-date on the ever-changing hurricane. I would also like to thank President Donald Trump for helping South Carolina to prepare in this time of uncertainty. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
