Rep. Jackson Visits Aftermath of Perryton Tornado Disaster

AMARILLO – Today, Congressman Ronny Jackson (TX-13) released the following statement after visiting Perryton, TX after a tornado struck the town on June 15, 2023.

Jackson said: “This morning, my family and members of my congressional staff joined me to visit Perryton to survey the aftermath of last night’s deadly tornado. We toured the wreckage and met with state and local officials to discuss steps forward. Hundreds of homes and businesses were destroyed, dozens were injured, and, tragically, lives were lost. Despite the wreckage, the Perryton community, local and state officials, and volunteers from across TX-13 came together to provide water, food, fuel, and generators to their neighbors in need. It will take weeks, even months, to rebuild. Please join us in praying for the people of Perryton during this unthinkable time.”
