I applaud the US military and the IDF for successfully intercepting hundreds of Iranian missiles today.  This coalition saved thousands of lives. Let me be clear: America will continue to support our ally, Israel, as we stand up for democracy and against terrorism.

If your property was damaged by Hurricane Helene, be sure to protect yourself from scammers. "Storm-chasers" often go door-to-door soliciting their services after major storms - stay safe by practicing these tips.

The last step for #forest landowners with damage from #HurricaneHelene is to Restore your land. Working with your professional forester, decide how much restoration is needed. Also look into financial assistance programs that may be available to you.

As we begin the recovery process, it is absolutely essential that you document all damage to your operation. This information is critical as we begin the process of requesting much-needed emergency relief for producers from USDA and our other federal partners.
