Thomas Tillis has not publicly weighed in on Trump Administration's Delayed Hurricane Helene Recovery Funds for Western North Carolina (May-July 2025)

Thomas Tillis has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "Trump Administration's Delayed Hurricane Helene Recovery Funds for Western North Carolina (May-July 2025)" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: As a U.S. Senator representing North Carolina, where Hurricane Helene devastated western communities in September 2024, Tillis would be expected to vocally and publicly pressure the Trump administration when recovery aid stalled or was rejected. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Tillis was highly vocal in October 2024 defending the federal Helene response and condemning politicization. But by May 2025, North Carolina political observers noted that Tillis had gone silent on Helene recovery, with PoliticsNC reporting on May 28, 2025 that 'Congressman Chuck Edwards has gone AWOL. He's made no comment about Trump's rejection of aid to the region. Same with Senator Thom Tillis.' During this same window, Tillis was intensely engaged in the Medicaid/budget reconciliation fight that led to his retirement.
