After touching down in Corpus Christi, Texas, Pence expressed support for victims and promised to help the state rebuild "stronger and better than before," according to the Associated Press.
Texas endured five days of rain that flooded major cities, including Houston, with nearly 52 inches of water, a record for the continental US.
"The President sent Karen and I here today to survey the damage and ensure that the full resources of the federal government are being brought in support of the effort of state and local officials," Pence said during a press briefing, "to rescue those that are in harms way, to help communities begin to recover, and to lay a foundation to rebuild Texas in the wake of this horrific storm.
