Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Chip Roy (TX-21) issued the following statement after voting for H. Con. Res. 113, the budget resolution required to unlock the reconciliation process.

Communities across the Hill Country continue recovering from last week’s devastating floods. While we are grateful that the loss of life was far lower than during last year’s flood, two of our fellow Texans were tragically lost, and many communities sustained significant damage to homes, businesses, roads, and other infrastructure.

With rain continuing to fall and water levels remaining a serious concern, I encourage everyone across Central Texas to stay alert, exercise caution, and heed the guidance of local officials. Some areas of the Hill Country have received more than 27 inches of rain in just over a day, creating life-threatening flooding.
