Today, we announced that President Donald J. Trump has approved two of Missouri's requests for a major disaster declaration in response to the severe storms, tornadoes, and flooding that impacted the state from March 14-15 and March 30-April 8.

This is important and very welcome news for the Missouri families and communities hit hard by the devastating storms and tornadoes that began in March and have affected so much of our state.

Missourians appreciate President Trump for approving these requests and providing assistance to Missourians.

Missouri State Emergency Management Agency will be working closely with FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency to move the federal assistance process forward, which will provide millions of dollars in much needed recovery support for individuals, families, and local jurisdictions.
