INDIANAPOLIS — In a recent post on Truth Social, President Donald Trump announced a $15.1 million disaster relief fund for Indiana to aid communities impacted by severe storms earlier this year.
In the post, Trump praised Governor Mike Braun's leadership and expressed confidence in the state’s recovery efforts, stating he had spoken with Braun about the allocation.
In response, Braun thanked Trump on X (formerly Twitter), emphasizing that the funding is crucial for helping Hoosier communities rebuild.
Thank you President @realDonaldTrump for your leadership and approval of this critical funding!
