Donald Trump responded to the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene in North Carolina by deploying the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to assist with recovery efforts. The storm caused severe damage to infrastructure, and the Corps will help rebuild roads, stabilize riverbanks, and assess bridges.
Trump emphasized the federal government’s commitment to aiding local authorities, and North Carolina Governor James Marshall praised the swift response. The Corps will prioritize restoring key routes for emergency services.
Local residents expressed relief, hoping the Corps’ involvement will speed up recovery. Experts also suggest rebuilding with sustainable solutions to reduce future damage.
While some critics question the cost of recovery, Trump assured that funding will be managed responsibly. This federal support marks an important step in North Carolina’s rebuilding process.
