Senator Hawley tours Carl Junction damage

Missouri US Senator Josh Hawley canceled his trip to the U.S.-Mexico border to tour damage caused by an EF-3 tornado in the Briarbrook area of Carl Junction. Hawley tells Newstalk KZRG that he will do everything he can at the federal level to assure residents they have the resources and assistance they need to rebuild and recover. The freshman senator has been in constant contact with local law enforcement and other agencies that have been on the ground since the tornado, packing winds up to 140 mph, went through town Wednesday night.

Fortunately there were no injuries or fatalities in the Carl Junction area.
