Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda Relief
Dear Friends,
I want to express my condolences to those affected by Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda and the Filipino community in the United States. My deepest sympathies are with the Filipino people at this devastating time.
What is particularly frightening is that many people locally are having difficulty locating their relatives in the Philippines, and are unsure of where to turn to check on them. To that end, if you or someone you know is in this situation, please refer to Restoring Family Links, from the International and National Red Cross.

Further, many concerned citizens have contacted my office to determine how to help in the unprecedented humanitarian effort that will need to be undertaken to assist the Philippines in its recovery. Now, more than ever, the people of the Philippines need our help.
