President Biden began his three-day tour of Pennsylvania on April 16. Today, he visited Scranton and heads to Pittsburgh next. The tour wraps up with a stop in Philadelphia on the 18th.
This tour holds significance, especially with the Pennsylvania primaries just a week away. It’s an early test of support in this pivotal swing state.
Meanwhile, former President Trump’s first criminal trial unfolds in Manhattan this week. Biden’s message in Scranton stresses raising taxes on the wealthy and championing the middle class.
The tour aims to highlight the clear policy differences between Biden and Trump. Biden’s focus on supporting the working class contrasts sharply with Trump’s policies favoring the wealthy. Public support for Biden’s policies is high, with economists praising his economic performance.
James Singer, spokesperson for the Biden-Harris 2024 campaign, reiterated Biden’s policy goals and commitment to the American people during the tour.
