Biden approves major disaster declaration in Texas after winter storm
President Biden declared a major disaster in Texas Saturday, and asked fed agencies to help state and local efforts. The declaration makes federal funds available for over 70 counties in the state. The assistance may include grants for temporary housing or home repairs, low-cost loans among other programs. On Friday, Biden said he planned to sign the measure ahead of a visit to Texas next week.
To anyone who blames the Green New Deal for what happened... 1. Texas is one of the last states willing to sign onto the Green New Deal. 2. The Green New Deal was never actually passed. 3. Green energy has been overperforming, unlike fossil fuel. 4. Texas doesn't have the infrastructure to deal with snow storms. So do blame green energy for Texas' lack of infrastructure. It's a sad accident, but it's just that, an accident.
In an unprecedented move Sniffy signs an Executive Order declaring the temperature in Texas to get warmer. Media heralds this as the forward thinking 6d chess that America deserves.
Biden wants more people to use electricity only in houses. That would surely helpšBidenās website includes ādirect cash rebates and low-cost financing to upgrade and electrify home appliances,ā which could mean replacing gas furnaces, water heaters and stoves with electric alternatives. https///www.latimes.co//busines//stor//2020-11-1//climate-change-gas-biden-moniz āIf somebody wants to build a coal-fired power plant, they can. Itās just that it will bankrupt them,ā Obama said, responding to a question about his cap-and-trade plan. He later added, āUnder my plan ā¦ electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.ā
At least Biden is doing his job and sending the emergency help to Texas. Texas governors did nothing to prevent this while they knew it could happen again. They had a prevention report since 2011 (when this same thing happened) Biden has showed being much better president in just a couple of months and helping ALL people in the country. Not like #45 did with Puerto Rico when it was hit by 2 level 5 hurricanes. He dared throwing toilet paper to people who lost it all. Called their home a shthole. And the help never came. The island was in disrepair for years. PR is part of the country too. Count your blessings. Someone with ethics is in charge now.
Wait you mean he's not denying aid just because it's a "red state"? But according to Frump that's how you be presidential right? By being a petty overgrown child?
Will Biden send his 1000 personal soldiers to help ... or will he keep them in Washington proving his fascist intent? If Texas was whiter he would care more. But democrats love their corporate stooges and rushed to elect the most racist person in Washington because big brother asked them to. #MostRacistPresidentEver
Wait... why are we trying to help a state who wanted to separate themselves from the rest of the country? I don't really care if they are our own, they wanted to separate therefore we shouldn't help them.
Minnesota, for example, relies on coal and nuclear energy for most of its power, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. It's colder yet less problems. https://www.eia.gov/state/analysis.php?sid=MN#:~:text=Almost%20all%20the%20rest%20of,%2C%20biomass%2C%20and%20conventional%20hydropower.
Newsvoice has become a bunch of unamerican, censoring low life's. God forbid you have any criticism of our joke of a president. He's not even bubblegum on the president's shoe. Gum shoe Joe
Seems every presidency these days gets a climate disaster on its hands. U savvy yet !? Or are still juggling it out with whitey issues !?
Has Texas requested this Federal assistance?
Better late than never..
Because after means he cares... That is why when I see a mother being beat by an abuser... I wait until he is done before calling the police... :) thanks Biden
What took so long?
This is Texas, we donāt need him, but thankfully AOC the waitress is at the Houston food bank today, sheās got experience serving food and drinks
BEIJING BIDENš¤”š© is such a PATHETIC JOKE!!! Did Sleepy Joe finally stop playing Mario Kart, or wake up from his frequent naps in the Basement??!!! The ONLY reason the USA is subject to his CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION is because UNITED STATES CITIZENS were victims of WIDESPREAD ELECTION FRAUD!!!
About freaking time..
Wow, it only took him a week...
They chose not to be part of the national power grid to avoid regulations. In 2011 when this happened Republican Senators said they needed to make changes to make sure it never happens again. Now they want socialism in Texas? Sad hillbillies. š¢
The real disaster is that TX chose unregulated capitalism over serving the needs of it's people.
