Hudson Surveys Florence Damage in Cabarrus County, Provides Constituents Resources
CONCORD, N.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement after traveling across the eighth district to meet with Emergency Management officials and other local leaders, learn more about response and recovery efforts, and talk with constituents in shelters. On Tuesday, Rep. Hudson met with County Manager Mike Downs and spoke with and thanked emergency management officials for their efforts.
“My wife Renee and I are heartbroken to see the devastation from Hurricane Florence, and we will continue to pray for our state,” said Rep. Hudson. “I visited the emergency operations center and met with local leaders to be briefed on preparation and response efforts and thank folks for their hard work. Cabarrus County took a very proactive approach, and thankfully, we were spared the worst of the storm. Other parts of our state weren’t as lucky, and I will continue to work with state and local officials to ensure everyone has what’s necessary to rebuild.”
Rep. Hudson meets with officials at the EOC.
The eighth district includes Cumberland, Hoke, Moore, Montgomery, Stanly, Cabarrus and Rowan Counties. Rep. Hudson has been working closely with local and state partners to ensure our community has the resources necessary to rebuild. In addition, constituents of North Carolina’s eighth district can find important information, including emergency resources and contact information, here.
