Biden Arrives in Florida to Survey Damage From Hurricane Milton

President Joe Biden will survey the devastation inflicted on Florida’s Gulf Coast by Hurricane Milton.

The president’s visit Sunday comes as he urges Congress to approve additional emergency disaster money after back-to-back hurricanes lashed the Southeast.

Many Floridians spent much of Saturday either waiting hours in line for gas, trying to get home or beginning the arduous work of cleaning up after Hurricane Milton.

Gov. Ron DeSantis said several fuel depots where residents could get 10 gallons of gas for free were set to open. Officials were also using state fuel stockpiles to replenish area gas stations.

Moody’s Analytics estimates economic costs from the storm will range from $50 billion to $85 billion.
