Quiver AI Summary

Congresswoman Sarah Elfreth, alongside several Maryland Senators and Representatives, has urged President Trump to approve a disaster declaration request for Allegany and Garrett Counties following significant flooding in May. In a letter, they cite new damage estimates rising to $33.7 million, exceeding federal thresholds for assistance under the Stafford Act.

The delegation emphasized the urgent need for federal support, highlighting that additional damages have been verified and that previous assessments did not account for total impacts. They believe federal assistance is crucial as winter approaches and local resources are strained.

This renewed call aligns with Maryland Governor Wes Moore's appeal against the initial denial of disaster assistance, stressing the importance of timely federal aid to support community recovery efforts and enhance preventive measures against future disasters.
