Published | Video Starts at 08:11

I'm chair of the aging committee. So we put a lot of effort into hurricane and disaster preparedness. With all of us in Congress, we've had some success. The House, not the Senate so far passed a disaster relief for people that have had these in the last few years. So you get tax relief for any excess costs over your insurance costs. So Carlos has done his job. We still have got our job to do in the Senate. (08:11–08:18)
