Governor Roy Cooper shared the following comment on the Hurricane Florence recovery package that passed the legislature tonight:

"I appreciate legislators responding quickly and taking this initial step to help North Carolinians recover from this devastating storm, particularly in the areas of education and the federal match. However, we must continue to work together to provide more for affordable housing and farmers as well as to make real investments to ensure clean water and to lessen the impacts of future storms on our homes, roads, businesses and water infrastructure."

Governor Cooper intends to sign the bill into law soon.
