“Sadly, wildfires are devastating our neighbors in California. In the face of this tragedy, first responders from across the country have answered the call to help. I will take a moment to recognize the brave firefighters from District Eight of Texas who have traveled from far east Texas all the way to California. This includes the firefighters from the Houston Fire Department as well as the Needham, Porter, Conroe, and North Montgomery Fire Departments. The City of Conroe Fire Department proudly deployed its newly commissioned Type 3 brush truck to assist in battling the California wildfires. This wildland fire truck is specifically engineered to fight fires in rough and challenging terrain. Our firemen expect to deploy for the remaining weeks. Their selflessness and commitment to protecting fellow Americans is inspiring. I thank these firefighters and every first responder stepping into harm's way. Guardians of their communities, firefighters are always willing to run into danger and share their brave hearts and strong hands. We pray for their safety, their quick return, and for all those who have been devastated by this tragedy in California. ____________________”
