The Road to Recovery: Florida Faces Hurricane Ian’s Aftermath
Floridians are recovering after Hurricane Ian caused destruction that President Biden says may “rank among the worst in the nation’s history.” As local communities collaborate with federal organizations to face the damage left in Hurricane Ian’s wake, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and President Biden have “put politics aside” to ensure those in Florida receive the resources necessary to rebuild. Florida Congressman Gus Bilirakis is working alongside fellow state officials to provide aid to the state’s southwest coast, where cities like Fort Myers and Cape Coral were significantly impacted. He joins the Rundown to discuss how Floridians’ strength and morale are playing a large role in recovery efforts, why he opposes the continuing resolution bill recently passed by President Biden and what key issues are impacting his constituents.

Cryptocurrencies have plunged in value this year, leading to more skepticism and growing talks of regulation. Senior Market Analyst at Price Futures Group and FOX Business Contributor Phil Flynn joins the Rundown to discuss volatility and risks within the crypto market, why digital currency is growing in popularity among younger adults, and the possibility of a digital government currency in the future.
