#shorts On 7/5/2023, a reporter asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “Ohio Governor Mike DeWine is asking the President to declare East Palestinian a “major disaster area” after the train derailment. He sent the President a letter on Monday. Is the President considering and will he fulfill that request?

KJP: So I can say this: As it does with all of its requests, FEMA — it will expeditiously review the request — this particular request from the governor of Ohio, as well …

Reporter: And why has the President not made the visit out there? And at this point, is he just not going to? He’s done a lot of travel in recent weeks and months.

KJP: So I’m just going to repeat what the President said. He — he will travel to the area, to East Palestine. Just don’t have anything to share on travel or upcoming dates that he’ll be there. But the President said it. He’s going to go. So he will go.
