RUSH EXCERPT: STEIN: "Well, I want to do everything I can for the people of North Carolina, and right now folks in western North Carolina are really suffering. Hurricane Helene left unimaginable devastation in its wake. Many lives lost. Thousands of buildings destroyed homes and small businesses. Infrastructure, critical infrastructure, water and sewer, waste water. Parts of highway 40 fell into the water. We are look at multibillion dollar. We have an appropriations request. I was up there in Washington two weeks ago with governor cooper meeting with senators Tillis and Budd and a number of congressional offices, and I am eager to work with the Trump Administration to deliver for the people of western North Carolina who need the help of the federal government and our state government to get back up on their feet."
