the republican, and we want to bring in matthew swift, working with concordia. thank you for your time and this weekend coverage here. we re trying to assess the damage from a financial standpoint. and you look historically, these storms have gotten more and more expensive over the years in part because we re going to places where we ve never lived before. what s your message on the cost of this, matthew, good afternoon. good afternoon, thank you so much for having me, bill. i think this is the exact time to be talking about the need for disaster preparedness and infrastructure investment. the economic impact of these things can be huge, not necessarily on the national academy as secretary ross and secretary of commerce said yesterday, but, in fact, on the states, on carolinas, on these communities. so the thing that we need to be very cognizant of, what is the local community resilience that s going to take place here. yes, it s downgraded to a tropical storm, and certain
