WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump approved Florida's request for emergency federal aid on Sunday to help with the recovery from destructive Hurricane Irma.

The federal funding includes "grants for temporary housing and home repairs, low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses and other programs to help individuals and business owners recover from the effects of the disaster," the White House said.
