Donald Trump To Visit Texas To Survey Response To Storm Harvey

U.S. President Donald Trump planned to visit Texas today to survey the response to devastating Tropical Storm Harvey, the first major natural disaster of his White House tenure.The slow-moving storm has brought catastrophic flooding to Texas, killed at least nine people, led to mass evacuations and paralyzed Houston, the fourth most-populous U.S. city.

It had also roiled energy markets and wrought damage estimated to be in the billions of dollars, with rebuilding likely to last beyond Trump's current four-year term in office.

"My administration is coordinating closely with state and local authorities in Texas and Louisiana to save lives, and we thank our first responders and all of those involved in their efforts," Trump told reporters at the White House yesterday.
