Sean Duffy assures 'lightning quick' aid will go to Hurricane Helene victims

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy detailed the vast amount of damage North Carolina sustained after Hurricane Helene last year and how the Trump administration will move in a more expedient manner to repair the area.

Duffy explained on Monday that repairing Interstate 40, a portion of which was closed following Hurricane Helene, is one of the priorities in this relief. The transportation secretary assessed how rock will be needed to rebuild the roadway and that the Department of Transportation can partner with the Forest Service to get this resource closer to the site rather than traveling up to 40 miles to get it elsewhere.
