Sen. Murray to visit floodwall in Mount Vernon Friday
Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) will tour Skagit County’s flood wall in Mount Veron Friday afternoon and look for ways she can support communities trying to recover after devastating floods.
Murray will be joined by local leaders, first responders, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) representatives to get a better sense of how the flood wall helped this week and how they can support recovery efforts.
In a statement, Murray’s office said her “immediate focus” will be federal relief in the short term, although she is expected to talk about infrastructure investments.
She has supported infrastructure projects in the past, including some that supported flood control on the Skagit River.
