Tune in here to this  Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Brett kicks off the program joined by Scott Turner from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and Chuck Edwards to talk about hurricane recovery efforts in Western North Carolina and the federal resources being directed toward rebuilding communities in Asheville.

The conversation highlights billions of dollars in disaster recovery funding following the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, including FEMA assistance and HUD community development block grant funds aimed at restoring housing and infrastructure. Turner discusses how federal agencies are working to ensure aid is delivered efficiently while also promoting long-term economic growth through Opportunity Zones that could bring private investment and new housing to the region. Edwards emphasizes his efforts in Congress to secure funding and advocate for residents still navigating FEMA bureaucracy.
