President Biden will deliver remarks soon after touring a Queens, New York, neighborhood damaged by flooding from Ida.

According to the White House pool, Biden was greeted by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer upon arriving in Queens.

"This is an area, Queens, New York, hit so hard by the remnants of Hurricane Ida. This is where multiple people died because they could not get out of their basement apartments fast enough as the water flooded in. If you walk around this area, you see the signs of devastation everywhere," CNN correspondent MJ Lee reported.
