USA TODAY/About one week after Texas was ravaged by a winter storm that left millions without electricity and water for days, President Joe Biden went down to the Lone Star State to survey the damage and take on his role of consoler-in-chief.
“I wanted to visit Texas today for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, to let the people of Texas know our prayers are with you in this aftermath of this winter storm,” Biden said in remarks following a stop at COVID-19 vaccine distribution in Houston.
