FEMA, the USDA, and the SBA are offering relief to people living in disaster zones after last week’s storms.
Here’s a guide to how to apply for government and non-governmental aid.
The devastating cold snap in and around Texas last week has had major effects: On Saturday, President Joe Biden declared a major disaster in the state, and AccuWeather estimates the overall value of the damages could approach $50 billion.
