President Biden said he has not been able to find the opportunity to visit East Palestine, Ohio in seven months since the town suffered a train derailment and chemical contamination that brought it into the national spotlight.

Biden was speaking to the press in Live Oak, Florida Saturday in the wake of Hurricane Idalia when he was asked why he has not visited East Palestine.

“I haven’t had the occasion to go to East Palestine,” Biden said. “There’s a lot going on here, and I just haven’t been able to break. I was thinking that I would go to East Palestine this week, but I’ve been reminded I’ve gotta go literally around the world,” Biden continued.
