The Bidens interrupt weeklong vacation in Lake Tahoe area for the five-hour flight to Lahaina, a historic town of 13,000 people that was virtually destroyed by the flames.
Green said Sunday on CBS' “Face the Nation” that “an army of search and rescue teams” with 41 dogs had blanketed the affected area.
Bissen said 850 names were on a list of missing people, taking hope from the fact that the initial list contained more than 2,000 names. More than 1,000 federal officials remain on the ground to respond to the wildfires in Hawaii, according to the White House. The administration has distributed more than $8.5 million in aid to some 8,000 affected families, including $3.6 million in rental assistance, said FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell.
