Trump signs disaster declaration due to major flooding in Kerr County, Texas

President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that he signed a major disaster declaration for Kerr County, Texas, which has been hit with major floods that have killed at least 69 people, including 21 children.

"I just signed a Major Disaster Declaration for Kerr County, Texas, to ensure that our Brave First Responders immediately have the resources they need. These families are enduring an unimaginable tragedy, with many lives lost, and many still missing," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. 

"The Trump Administration continues to work closely with State and Local Leaders.
