New Hampshire—Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter sent a letter to President Bush today urging him to provide individual assistance to the victims of the recent weather disaster and asking him to also include Belknap, Coos, and Grafton Counties in the Disaster Declaration.  Earlier this week, President Bush amended the FEMA Disaster Declaration for New Hampshire and included Strafford and Merrimack Counties.  Although FEMA provides both public and individual assistance, the Declaration currently provides no individual assistance.
