This Senate resolution commemorates the tenth anniversary of the devastating floods that struck West Virginia on June 23, 2016. The resolution recalls how severe thunderstorms triggered a thousand-year flooding event that killed 23 people, caused an estimated $1.2 billion in damage, and led the governor to declare a state of emergency in 44 of the state's 55 counties, with the President subsequently declaring a major disaster. It notes that the floods knocked out power for more than 500,000 people, destroyed or damaged thousands of homes and businesses, washed out roads and bridges, and completely destroyed multiple schools, leaving entire communities underwater. The resolution honors the first responders and neighbors who helped protect residents during the crisis and recognizes the resilience of West Virginia communities in rebuilding in the years since. It is a symbolic measure that carries no funding, regulatory changes, or binding legal effect, serving instead to formally mark the anniversary and pay tribute to those who died or were affected.
