November is #prematurityawarenessmonth. The preterm birth rate is continuing to rise, so while we believe that every baby deserves the best possible start, not all babies get one. There is something we can do. Advocate, donate and raise awareness at bit.ly/PAMtw18.

ICYMI: Read about my bipartisan bill w/ @RepWalterJones @RepDebDingell @RepThomasMassie @RepSchakowsky @justinamash @PeterWelch @JaredHuffman @RepAnnaEshoo to prohibit military sales & aid to #SaudiArabia in light of #JamalKhashoggi disappearance.
Massachusetts @RepMcGovern’s bill would ban all arms sales and military cooperation with Saudi Arabia, unless the secretary of state certifies that the Saudi government and its agents “did not order or direct” Jamal Khashoggi’s disappearance or killing. interc.pt/2yJIuaD

After you apply for disaster assistance, a housing inspector may contact you to schedule an appointment. Housing inspectors always wear a FEMA badge & will not ask you for your 9-digit registration number. They will already have it on file. Be sure to report fraudulent behavior.

It isn't too late to donate to Hurricane Florence relief efforts. You can donate at governor.nc.gov or with other reputable charities. Beware of fraudulent activity when choosing a charity and report any suspicious activity to 1-877-5-NO-SCAM. ow.ly/vaGs30m3nQD
