Description
President Joe Biden delivers remarks reaffirming his commitment to support the state of Florida after touring a community impacted by Hurricane Idalia.
President Joe Biden got a look Saturday from the sky at Hurricane Idalia's impact across a swath of Florida before setting out on a walking tour of a city recovering from the storm. Notably absent from his schedule was any time with Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican president candidate who suggested a meeting could hinder disaster response efforts.
“Our teams worked collectively to find this area. This was a mutually agreed upon area because of the limited impact,” Deanne Criswell, the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, told reporters as the president flew from Washington. She said her teams "have heard no concerns over any impact to the communities that we’re going to visit today.’’
