During his visit, President Biden surveyed the damage through an aerial tour, met with survivors and officials, and addressed a crowd in Lahaina. However, his comments about a small kitchen fire were seen as insensitive, sparking accusations that he did not take the tragedy seriously. Biden promised federal government assistance for Maui's recovery from the deadliest wildfire in the United States in over a century.
