Biden calls passage of historic climate and healthcare legislation as a ‘big deal’ in state where flooding has claimed 37 lives,
Joe Biden on Monday toured parts of eastern Kentucky devastated by the worst flooding in the state’s history and pledging to help recovery, while his spokesperson warned that the climate crisis was having an impact on such events there and across America.
At least 37 people have died in the flooding since a deluge late last month that dropped up to 10.5in of rain in only 48 hours.
