Evidence

Babin requested FY2027 funding for the Chambers County Regional Emergency Response and Interoperable Communications Project, including high-water rescue vehicles and other assets to support disaster response, flood response, and evacuation operations in Southeast Texas.

Babin is still pursuing concrete disaster-response and flood-evacuation upgrades for a Southeast Texas county vulnerable to hurricanes and flooding.

Babin requested FY2027 funding for the Clear Creek Federal Flood Risk Management Project, saying it would reduce flood risk in Harris and Brazoria counties and 17 cities and citing the area's Hurricane Harvey flooding history.

Babin is still pressing for federal flood-mitigation funding tied to Harvey-era damage in Southeast Texas.

Assessments

partial later_term A for effort

The evidence shows Babin continued to pursue federal flood-mitigation and disaster-response funding for Southeast Texas communities affected by Harvey-era flooding, including FY2027 requests for Clear Creek and Chambers County projects. That is candidate-attributable federal advocacy and supports partial credit for continuing the rebuilding effort, but the record provided does not show that the promised communities were actually rebuilt better and stronger, or that these FY2027 requests had passed and produced completed outcomes.
