still searching for those missing in Central Texas after historic
flooding swept through the region. At least one hundred and
twenty people are dead and over one hundred and seventy
are still missing. Volunteer Jeff Rockouse says he and some

their kids home, just praying for the people that they don't.

at Alligator Alcatraz. The Florida Division of Emergency Management is
inviting Democrats in the state legislature and Congress to tour
the illegal immigrant detention center in the Everglades on Saturday.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
I think there's some concern that it's going to be
a scripted tour because we are, by law supposed to

communion through personal prayer such as the Rosary and Divine
Mercy Chaplet, or reading scripture. I'm Jim Roop.
