Rand Paul vociferously opposed federal aid for New Jersey after Super Storm Sandy, and here he is in the Senate, standing up against being generous when Sen Kennedy (one of his own guys) proposes we help people who got pretty fucked over by a weather disaster:
Meanwhile, Kentucky gets slammed by a tornado that killed at least 70 people, and there's little old Senator Aqua Budha suckin' around for a handout.
Dear President Biden,
Last night and early this morning devastating storms swept across multiple states, including Kentucky. A single tornado from that system may have been on the ground for over 200 miles, and a large swath of the Commonwealth has been severely hit. As the sun comes up this morning we will begin to understand the true scope of the devastation, but we already know of loss of life and severe property damage.
The Governor of the Commonwealth has requested federal assistance this morning, and certainly further requests will be coming as the situation is assessed. I fully support those requests and ask that you move expeditiously to approve the appropriate resources for our state.
Sincerely,
Rand Paul, M.D.
United States Senator
