Thousands of Detroiters, like these neighbors on Eastlawn Street lost belongings and memories in the aftermath of the storm of June 25-26. They have remained resilient and have done a tremendous job supporting one another through this challenging time. https://t.co/MthbtqD4Wu — PolitiTweet.org

I will be meeting with President Biden this Saturday to stress the urgency of a declaration of a major disaster. We will need FEMA to do an assessment and make a recommendation to the President, per the process, and they have already agreed to come to Detroit. — PolitiTweet.org

We have 71 crews working around the clock on flood clean up duty. This flood has caused more damage than the flood in 2014 and has caused devastation to many Detroit residents. We are doing everything we can to recover from this natural disaster. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I held a briefing with officials to share how we’ve expanded city efforts to get damaged debris off the streets as a result of the flooding last weekend. We are scheduling support for our Detroit’s west side and east side neighborhoods. https://t.co/U6NtqrPPWH — PolitiTweet.org

Last week's storm was more intense and devastating than 2014's, when President Obama declared a disaster. We feel we have a stronger case for a declaration this time. Detroiters appreciate @GovWhitmer's sense of urgency in quickly getting this declaration. https://t.co/GhLl3hJX3h — PolitiTweet.org

Based on what we are seeing here and in other areas of the city, last week's storm was even more devastating than the one we experienced in 2014 and Gov. Whitmer and I are seeking a presidential disaster declaration as soon as possible. https://t.co/7UWMtkzxcH — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, I stopped by Eastlawn, Fern and 31st streets to get a first-hand look at some of the recent flood damage residents experienced a week ago. The loss of belongings and family memories is just heartbreaking. https://t.co/NCJWTmP9OZ — PolitiTweet.org

Today, City Council approved a plan to appropriate $826 million in #AmericanRescuePlanAct funds so we can begin putting those dollars to use to improve the lives of Detroiters and our neighborhoods. Our future is much brighter today thanks to Detroit's community engagement. https://t.co/vusfc9T1Ln — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, I joined @GovWhitmer, @LtGovGilchrist, and officials from the Water and Sewage Department and other departments as we outlined the city’s response to last weekend’s devastating floods. In just one day, Detroit saw more rain than it typically receives in two months. https://t.co/EwGXuOoolR — PolitiTweet.org

Brison Christian had a life full of dreams and joy ahead of him - and it was taken from him by a horrific act of violence. The loss of Brison is going to affect our communities for a long time. We cannot and will not stand for this cruelty on our streets. https://t.co/vqyykL8M8B — PolitiTweet.org
