Governor Greg Abbott provided an update on recovery efforts following severe flooding in Kerr County. Reports indicate that 161 individuals remain unaccounted for and 110 have been confirmed dead. Abbott mentioned that investigations will commence in both legislative chambers prior to a special session. He emphasized the importance of focusing on solutions rather than assigning blame and likened the state’s response to that of a championship football team, advocating for resilience and unity in the face of tragedy.
"Tragedy has cometh—that part is done. What we do now, who we are now, that's where the story is still being written. Let it be one of grace, of grit, of fierce love."
"Know this: that's the word choice of losers. The championship teams are the ones who say, 'Don't worry about it, man. We got this.'"
