00:00I cannot stress enough to all the folks in Florida, in the Tampa area,
00:04please listen to evacuation orders.
00:09Please listen to your local officials.
00:12Because I know a lot of folks out there have survived these hurricanes before.
00:18This one is going to be very, very serious.
00:21And I urge you to please just grab whatever you need.
00:25Listen to the orders you're getting from your local officials.
00:27They know what they're telling you, and they know what Milton is about to be.
00:32So please do that.
00:34The other point I'd make is that there's a lot of mis and
00:37disinformation being pushed out there by the former president
00:41about what is available, in particular to the survivors of Nelene.
00:46And first of all, it's extraordinarily irresponsible.
00:50It's about him, it's not about you.
00:52And the reality is that FEMA has so
00:55many resources that are available to folks who desperately need them.
01:00Now, and resources that are about helping people get back on their feet and
01:05rebuild and have places to go.
01:08You are entitled to these resources.
