We need to be calling House and Senate members and tell them NO cuts to fund the disaster relief.

Folks can walk and chew gum at the same time.

I live in Houston, they don't want my blankets, water, clothes. Sending money to the folks that provide the blankets, water, etc is one of the best options unless you live close by to the affected area.

Edited to fix typo.
