If Hurricane Helene does n’t interfere with rescue and recovery efforts, President Joe Biden announced plans to travel to areas impacted by the storm this week.
Biden spoke with reporters on Sunday night and described the storm’s affect as” stunning” in response to the news agency AP. He added that the management is “everything we have” to help state with their answer.
Biden spoke with Taylor County Emergency Management Director John Louk, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, and governors of Georgia and North Carolina, among others. He assured them that, according to the White House, the presidency would continue to support the effected areas as long as necessary.
A North Carolina region, including Asheville, reported 30 deaths due to the storm, bringing the total death toll across some claims to at least 84.
Biden spent the majority of the trip in Delaware, but FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell and other officials have been providing standard changes on the wind. Criswell was given the task of finding ways to expedite support to remote areas that were battling to get help.
Former President Donald Trump‘s plan announced that Trump did attend Valdosta, Georgia, on Monday to determine the storm’s impact on the state. Trump’s visit does contain a presentation, supply of relief materials and remarks.
