    It has been an honor serving as @FEMA Administrator for nearly four years. The FEMA family takes immense pride in our mission of helping people before, during and after disasters. I know the agency will continue to serve the nation as we support this peaceful transition of power.

    .@POTUS Biden directed me to stay in North Carolina until the situation has stabilized and as I told him and the people of this community, the Biden-Harris Administration will be here as long as it takes to recover.

    I met with @NCEmergency officials today to discuss @fema support as they assess damage and address needs in hard-hit communities after #Dorian. We will continue to support the state as they recover.

    Since #Helene made landfall in North Carolina, I've been on the ground. I've been to over a dozen different communities, talking firsthand with people that have been impacted, first responders & community leaders, hearing what their needs are.

    This past weekend, the @NJNationalGuard helped set up 500 hospital beds in a field medical station at the New Jersey Convention Center. This is one of 3 sites @NJGov is opening to lift pressure off hospitals dealing with #COVID19 patients.

    We are bringing every federal agency involved in the #COVID19 response to the table each day to maintain coordination. Our teams are communicating with states, territories & tribes to make sure we know their needs & are prioritizing ways to meet those needs w/ federal resources.
