Congresswoman Suzanne Kosmas (FL-24) toured flooded areas of Volusia County to get a first hand look at the damage in order to fight for federal aid. Kosmas and Congressman John Mica (FL-7) were then successful in efforts to get President Obama to expedite the review process and issue a Major Disaster Declaration for Volusia County. A Major Disaster Declaration provides individuals with access to federal aid, such as temporary housing assistance. This assistance is especially critical for individuals who do not have flood insurance.
