President Joe Biden said Congress should return from its recess to pass emergency relief after Hurricane Milton wreaked havoc overnight on Florida’s Gulf Coast, leaving millions without power and causing tornadoes that killed at least ten people.
“I think the Congress should be coming back and moving on emergency needs immediately,” Biden said at the White House on Thursday.
