Biden to visit Louisiana to survey damage left by Hurricane Ida
President Biden[/url] will head to [url=]Louisiana[/url] today to survey damage after the state was battered by [url=]Hurricane Ida.
Biden will be in Louisiana for six hours beginning at noon, and is scheduled to deliver remarks in LaPlace at 4:15 p.m[/url]. He will begin his tour of the [url=]state in New Orleans and will speak about the damage and a path forward with various local leaders.
The announced visit comes after Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards invited the president to the state, noting that "getting eyes on the damage in person" is far better than seeing it on the news.

Once there...Biden said a "I think what we're all seeing, and I'm getting the same response from my Republican friends here that are in the Congress, is that there's nothing political about this.
It's just simply about saving lives and getting people back up and running, and we're in this together. And so we're not going to leave any community behind, rural, city, coastal, and I promise to have your backs until this gets done," Biden said.
