Mr. Ugur Kilinc
Savannah, GA 31404-1749
Dear Mr. Kilinc,
Thank you for contacting me regarding the deadly earthquake in Turkey and Syria.
I cannot overstate the horror, tragedy, and humanitarian crisis caused by the magnitude 7.8 earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria. As of right now, 45,089 people have lost their lives, with 115,000 injured. Infrastructure, buildings, business, and families have been greatly harmed by this terrible natural disaster.
The Biden administration announced that immediate aid and personnel would be sent to assist in the ongoing recovery efforts. Congress will continue to monitor the developing situation, and my thoughts and prayers remain with those effected by this tragic event.
I will be sure to keep your thoughts in mind moving forward. As always, it is an honor and privilege to represent the First Congressional District of Georgia.
Sincerely,
Congressman Buddy Carter
Buddy Carter
Member of Congress
