Oklahoma will bounce back from this week’s tornado just as strongly as it has from previous disasters, the state’s senior senator said Saturday in this week’s Republican address.
Sen. Jim Inhofe, on the ground in Moore, Okla., noted that the city had suffered through a similar tornado almost 15 years ago, and discussed how the state came together following the Oklahoma City bombings in 1995.
Moore will bounce back again, Inhofe said, because of the help it will receive from other areas of the state – what he called the “Oklahoma Standard.”
“I have seen people from all corners of the state continuing to flock to the devastating areas to give their time, their money, and their energy to help meet the dire needs of those injured or displaced,” Inhofe said.
