LOWER MATECUMBE
KEY, Fla. (AP) — Parts
of Florida inched back
toward normal with
workers restoring pow-
er, clearing roads and re-
plenishing gas supplies,
even as teams scoured
the state’s southernmost
islands and authorities
warned of mass devasta-
tion.
Residents drift ed back
from shelters and far-
away havens Tuesday
to see Hurricane Irma’s
scattershot
destruc-
tion. Flooded streets re-
mained, and the count
of damaged and totaled
homes ticked upward
even as some curfews
were lift ed, fl ights re-
sumed and amusement
park rides again twirled.
“Everything’s
gone,”
said Jen Gilreath, a
33-year-old
bartender
whose Jacksonville home
fi lled with knee-high
fl oodwaters.
As crews labored to
repair the lone highway
connecting the Keys, res-
idents of some of the is-
lands closest to Florida’s
mainland were allowed
to return and get their
fi rst look at the devasta-
tion two days aft er Irma
roared in with 130 mph
(209 kph) winds.
Federal
Emergency
Management Agency ad-
ministrator Brock Long
said preliminary esti-
mates suggested that 25
percent of the homes in
the Keys were destroyed
and 65 percent sustained
major damage.
Myanmar drawing con-
demnation for violence
that has driven at least
370,000 Rohingya to fl ee
the country, the govern-
ment said Wednesday its
leader Aung San Suu Kyi
would skip this week’s
U.N. General Assembly.
Suu Kyi was missing
the assembly, which
opened Tuesday and
runs through Sept. 25,
in order to address do-
mestic security issues,
ing their plan for trying
again.
They’ve struggled for
weeks to round up suf-
fi cient support for the
package. It would cut
and reshape Medicaid,
disperse money spent
under Obama’s law di-
rectly to states and erase
Obama’s penalties on
people who don’t pur-
chase coverage.

In this Friday, Aug. 11, 2017 photo, Myanmar’s State Counsellor Aung
San Suu Kyi delivers an opening speech during the Forum on Myanmar
Democratic Transition in Naypyitaw, Myanmar. Suu Kyi has canceled
plans to attend the U.N. General Assembly, with her country drawing
international criticism for violence that has driven at least 370,000
ethnic Rohingya Muslims from the country in less than three weeks.
according to presiden-
tial offi ce spokesman
Zaw Htay. Suu Kyi is not
Myanmar’s president —
her offi cial titles are state
counselor and foreign
minister — but she eff ec-
tively serves as leader of
the Southeast Asian na-
tion.
Zaw Htay said that, with
President Htin Kyaw hos-
pitalized, the second vice
president would attend
the U.N. meeting.
“The fi rst reason (Suu
Kyi cannot attend) is be-
cause of the Rakhine ter-
rorist attacks,” Zaw Htay
said. “The state counsel-
or is focusing to calm
the situation in Rakhine
state. There are circum-
stances. The second rea-
son is, there are people
inciting riots in some ar-
eas. We are trying to take
care of the security issue
els, setting off a wave of
violence that have left
hundreds dead and thou-
sands of homes burned
— mostly Rohingya in
both cases.

Liberal Sen. Bernie Sand-

bill for starkly reshaping
the country’s current
hodge-podge health care
system into one where
the government pro-
vides medical insurance

Republican senators
