BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. STEUBE. Mr. Speaker, in September 2022, my district in southwest Florida was devastated by Hurricane Ian. Totaling over $112 billion in damages, Ian was the third costliest hurricane in American history and the most expensive ever to hit Florida. Over a year later, my constituents are still working toward rebuilding their lives.

I introduced the Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act, which is included in this bill, to deliver relief for American families in 45 States who were victims of federally declared disasters. This includes victims of wildfires, chemical spills, and hurricanes that have affected millions of Americans over the past several years.

Mr. Speaker, we should pass this important tax relief for victims of natural disasters. I urge my colleagues to support this legislation.
