Gov. Kemp on Hurricane Helene: ‘What We’re All Going Through Is a Living Nightmare’

EXCERPT:

KEMP: “Yesterday I authorized the Georgia Guard to send a Chinook helicopter and crew to North Carolina to help an ongoing search and rescue operations. What they’re going through, what we’re all going through is a living nightmare and we’re going to continue to pull together as we go through this together. These are just a few of the actions that we’ve taken. But rest assured, we will not stop until everyone is recovered and made whole. Someone sent me a Bible verse earlier today and I’ve been thinking a lot about this. It’s Galatians 6:9 and it reads: ‘And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up.’ Those words epitomize where we are today and our commitment. We are not giving up. We are not going to leave until the job is done. I want to encourage all of our local officials and so many of their citizens that are working so hard on this recovery and helping and talking to people every day. Keep up that great work, keep the faith and know that we will be with you till the end.”
