President Joe Biden will visit Florida this week after a condominium collapsed in a Miami suburb last week, killing at least 10 people and leaving dozens more unaccounted for.

Speaking outside the White House on Tuesday, Biden said he would visit the Miami suburb “hopefully as early as Thursday.” The White House confirmed the plan shortly after and said the president would be joined by first lady Jill Biden.
