Biden says he'll meet DeSantis on Florida trip, DeSantis' spokesman suggests not

US President Joe Biden said he will meet with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis when he visits the state on Saturday to survey damage from this week's Hurricane Idalia. Biden, a Democrat seeking a second term, has asked for billions of additional emergency funding following a string of severe weather events. DeSantis, a Republican, is seeking his party's nomination to challenge Biden in the November 2024 presidential election.
