President Joe Biden will visit North Carolina after deadly Hurricane Helene ravaged the area. Biden will take an aerial tour of Asheville and have a briefing in Raleigh at the Emergency Operations Center.
President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are set to take separate tours on Wednesday of the catastrophic damage resulting from Hurricane Helene, from which at least 150 people have died. Biden is expected to visit North Carolina and South Carolina days after the storm swept through Florida and traveled north, causing damage as far north as Tennessee and Virginia.
As of Tuesday, more than 1,200 FEMA and other agency personnel were in North Carolina, according to the White House, which said at least 25 trailer loads of meals and 60 trailer loads of water were delivered to the state. The White House said that during Harris' visit to Georgia, she will get an on-the-ground briefing about the recovery efforts.
