'U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) announced at the West Texas Food Bank that various entities in the Midland region so far have been allocated $61,132,495 in federal coronavirus relief resources from Congress.   While there he helped pack boxes of food for Permian Basin families in need. He was hosted by Food Bank Executive Director Libby Campbell, who provided a tour and briefing about the Food Bank’s response to increased demand in West Texas during the pandemic.  Sen. Cornyn also learned about the West Texas Food Bank’s use of federal resources available through the CARES Act, which he supported in March, as well as their outstanding needs as the Senate discusses a fifth coronavirus relief bill. Leadership from Midland Health and the City of Midland also shared how they have used CARES Act grants to benefit the community.  ---  SUBSCRIBE to get the latest from Senator John Cornyn: http://bit.ly/SubscribeCornynYT  Visit Senator Cornyn\'s website: https://cornyn.senate.gov  Like Senator Cornyn on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SenJohnCornyn/ View Senator Cornyn’s photos on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/senjohncornyn  ABOUT SENATOR JOHN CORNYN  Senator Cornyn was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 2002, and is currently serving his third term after being re-elected in 2008 and 2014.
