U.S. CONGRESS – U.S. Senators Steve Daines and Jon Tester and Representative Matt Rosendale today announced that they secured $1,206,208.36 from FEMA to help communities in northeast Montana recover from a severe windstorm in 2021 that left many without power.
“Montana families, businesses, farmers and ranchers depend on reliable power, and I’m glad to see the impacted communities in northeast Montana receive this support to help get their lives back to normal after the damaging windstorm in 2021,” Daines said.
“Last year’s storm hit northeast Montana communities hard, leaving folks without critical power to maintain their homes, take care of their families, and run their businesses. I’m glad to have worked with FEMA to ensure those affected get the support and resources they need to get back on their feet,” Tester said.
“It is great to see northeastern Montanans finally get the support they need to return to normalcy. Montanans face many natural disasters, but their resiliency is unmatched,” Rosendale said.
