WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Roger Wicker, R-Miss., today voted for a bipartisan agreement to assist states affected by flooding, hurricanes, wildfires, and other natural disasters. Wicker and Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, R-Miss., successfully advocated to include Mississippi victims of this year’s disasters in the aid package.

“Mississippians have suffered violent storms and tornadoes and continue to be affected by devastating floods,” Wicker said. “This bipartisan agreement will provide much-needed resources and assistance to our state and other parts of the country affected by natural disasters.”
