Assessing the toll from Alaska’s historic storm
Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R) of Alaska is seeking federal disaster funds after a major storm battered a 1,000-mile stretch of the state’s western coastline.
The storm caused flooding and wind damage that destroyed homes, roads, power lines and other infrastructure, and displaced hundreds of residents. Thursday on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce hears about the immediate effects of the storm and measures to help residents.
