The freeze was a crisis entirely of Texa's own making because they're refusing to winterize their plants as freezes become increasingly common and more dangerous. The fact that you want to blame the feds for Texas complete ineptitude is disgusting as someone that had to deal with the freeze in 2021.
I was there for the freeze in 2021. Thankfully we had power periodically for an hour or two a couple times a day, so we were able to run the heater and keep the home livable (although it was in the low 50s at times inside). Dumped a lot of water out of the outside spigots (also not winterized) to keep the exposed PVC pipes from freezing outside. Neighbor didn’t do the same and his garage flooded because of all the burst pipes. It was a nightmare, and we had it better than a lot of other people did. Sad to hear this is happening again. It’s 100% on Texas.
