President Donald Trump on Sunday declared a major disaster in Texas as at least 67 people have died and dozens remain missing after torrential rainfall caused historic flooding along the Guadalupe River in the state's Hill Country.

The declaration will make federal resources available to individuals seeking housing and home repairs and to governments and nonprofits doing emergency work.

The declaration comes in response to severe storms, straight‑line winds, and widespread flooding that began on July 2 and continue to impact communities across the region
