While we may have missed the worst of Tropical Storm Henri, we still experienced damage in the First District and state.

Along with the rest of the CT Congressional delegation, I sent a letter on Saturday night urging President Biden to approve Governor Lamont’s emergency declaration request. I am pleased that the President approved this declaration so that federal resources are available to the state to respond to the storm. 

Here are some resources from FEMA that may be of help you following Tropical Storm Henri. This information will also help you stay prepared for other potential weather related events and emergencies.  For the latest information from your town or city, please visit their social media pages or websites. 

FEMA Assistance:

If you need FEMA assistance, you can find more information here. 

The FEMA app is available in both English and Spanish and is free to download. The FEMA app will provide emergency alerts and real-time safety notifications, emergency preparedness tips and disaster resources. The app is available for Apple and Android devices.  
  
My office is continually monitoring recovery efforts and will be doing everything we can to assist residents of the First District and municipal and state leaders. If you are having trouble navigating the above resources, you can contact my Hartford office at (860) 278-8888.
