Rep. Pat Ryan (D NY-18) is advocating for increased support for families affected by floods. 

He has invited Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R) to tour Highland Falls, emphasizing the need for assistance in light of the historic floods that occurred in July. 

Ryan is pressing for aid in the forthcoming FEMA supplemental funding bill.

In his letter to Speaker McCarthy, Ryan concludes by stating, "I strongly urge you to come to see firsthand the damage in the Hudson Valley, so that you and I can both look these families and community members in the eye...and tell them that Congress is doing everything we possibly can to ensure they have the help they need."
