President Donald Trump is set to visit to Alabama on Friday to visit with the victims of the devastating tornadoes that killed at least 23 people Sunday.
“I’ll be heading to Alabama on Friday,” Trump said Tuesday during an event at the White House, according to USA Today. “It’s been a tragic situation. But a lot of good work is being done.”
Specifics on the trip were not immediately available.
Trump has been in contact with Governor Kay Ivey since the immediate aftermath of the severe weather Sunday, with the president calling Ivey “one of the best in our Country.”
