“We've seen over the past five to 10 years, a lot of ad hoc disaster payments go out. How important is it to have disaster assistance that's flexible? Oh, I think it's really important. And Under the CCC, that gives the administration some flexibility to address things just like this [disaster assistance]. You know, disaster assistance when, you know, tragedies and whether it's hurricanes, tornadoes, it's not just about wildfires and ice storms and the things you see in the Pacific Northwest, but things that we're seeing all over the country that are devastating crops.” (06:07–06:15)
