Vice President Mike Pence is headed to Nebraska to survey the damage done by historic flooding in the region.
74 towns in 65 counties are under a state of emergency due to flooding from the Missouri River, which has led to at least four deaths, thousands of evacuations and caused nearly a billion dollars in property damage.
Pence will meet with Nebraksa Governor Pete Ricketts and Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds. FEMA officials plan to request a presidential emergency declaration to aid the region.
