Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff will travel tomorrow afternoon to Texas and visit areas impacted by Hurricane Ike. Additional details on times and locations for media availabilities are forthcoming.
We continue to remind Gulf Coast residents to listen to their local officials and evacuate immediately if advised to do so. Residents in areas where evacuations have not been called should ensure that they have enough food, water, medicine and other supplies to sustain themselves and their family for at least three days.
