Biden Pledges $1B for African Disaster Relief, Faces Backlash Over NC Hurricane Aid
Dec 3, 2024, 05:38 PM
President Joe Biden has announced a significant aid package, committing over $1 billion in U.S. taxpayer funds to assist African nations in rebuilding homes damaged by natural disasters like droughts and floods. This aid is intended to provide humanitarian support for those displaced.

Vice President Kamala Harris had promised more during her campaign visit on October 5th.
