I am writing as a deeply concerned resident of Oxford to express my profound disappointment in your response to the catastrophic flooding that devastated our town in August 2024. The torrential rains led to unprecedented destruction, including the tragic loss of two residents who were swept away by the floodwaters. In the immediate aftermath, our community witnessed homes destroyed, infrastructure compromised, and lives upended. Despite the clear and pressing needs of your constituents, reports indicate that neither you nor Senator Berthel have taken the necessary steps to request flood assistance for Oxford. Your inaction stands in stark contrast to the efforts of other leaders, who have been actively seeking support and resources for our community. As our elected representative, it is your duty to advocate for the well-being and recovery of Oxford’s citizens. Your apparent neglect in this critical time is both disheartening and unacceptable. I urge you to take immediate and decisive action to secure the necessary aid and support for our town’s recovery.
