0:34Now PlayingU.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) announced at the East Texas Food Bank that various entities in Tyler so far have been allocated nearly $77,200,000 in federal coronavirus relief resources from Congress.
While there he also volunteered, spending time sorting, packing, and loading boxes of food for East Texas families in need. He was hosted by Food Bank CEO Dennis Cullinane, who provided a tour and briefing about the East Texas Food Bank’s response to increased demand in East Texas during the pandemic.
Sen. Cornyn also learned about the East Texas Food Bank’s use of federal resources available through the CARES Act, which he supported in March, as well as their outstanding needs as the Senate discusses a fifth coronavirus relief bill.
Mayor Martin Heines of Tyler, Judge Nathaniel Moran of Smith County, Superintendent Dr. Marty Crawford of Tyler ISD, President Dr. Juan Mejia of Tyler Junior College, President Dr. Michael Tidwell of UT Tyler, and leadership from local health care facilities also shared how they have used CARES Act grants to benefit the community.
