    The House of Representatives finds the following:
            (1) Hurricane Floyd made landfall on the coast of North 
        Carolina on September 15, 1999, as a category two hurricane.
            (2) In the State of North Carolina alone, the hurricane 
        caused the deaths of at least 50 individuals, damage to more 
        than 40,000 homes, and billions of dollars in infrastructure 
        damage and agricultural losses.
            (3) Citizens of the States of Florida, Georgia, South 
        Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, 
        Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut have 
        registered for Federal disaster relief aid as a result of 
        Hurricane Floyd.
            (4) More than six weeks after this disaster, the citizens 
        of these States continue to await critical assistance from the 
        Federal Government to rebuild their homes, businesses, and 
        lives.

SEC. 2. SENSE OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

    It is the sense of the House of Representatives that the President 
should immediately transmit to Congress the President's recommendations 
for emergency response actions, including appropriate offsets, to 
provide relief and assistance to the victims of Hurricane Floyd.

                                                                 Clerk.
