The millions of people and the thousands of small businesses devastated by Hurricane Sandy are being comforted by the words of U.S. Rep. Keith Rothfus after his first vote in Congress: "My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those affected by Hurricane Sandy. The affected areas and families need relief."

Mr. Rothfus, by being one of only two in the Pennsylvania delegation to vote against the needed relief, you have given a clear indication of your direction should a disaster impact Western Pennsylvania. As you have stated that "we in Congress should have worked to find a way to pay for this now," I am hoping that you are staying in Washington during your break to find a way or, at least, thinking and praying for those who are in need.
