Vice President Kamala Harris embraced families as she surveyed storm damage in Georgia on Wednesday, offering residents comfort in the aftermath of the devastation of Hurricane Helene.
The Democratic vice presidential nominee traveled to Augusta, where she toured a Red Cross relief center, met with local officials, passed out food, and delivered remarks on federal disaster support, according to the Associated Press.
“The president and I have been paying close attention from the beginning to what we need to do to make sure the federal resources hit the ground as quickly as possible,” Harris said, according to The New York Times. “That work has been happening.”
