WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Joe Biden said on Monday he will visit hard-hit Kentucky on Wednesday to survey damage from deadly tornadoes that raked across a broad area of the state.
Biden spoke after getting an update on the tornado relief effort from his top advisers. He said he would soon approve a request for emergency assistance from Illinois. Biden said he had not yet established where he would visit in Kentucky.
