President Joe Biden toured an emergency operations center in Houston as he visited the city in the aftermath of a deadly cold snap that paralyzed America’s energy capital.
“It’s a hell of an operation you have here, probably the best one in the country,” Biden said at the Harris County Emergency Operations Center, where he was briefed by acting Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Bob Fenton and other officials. “You’re saving people’s lives. As my mother would say, you’re doing God’s work.”
