President Joe Biden will visit Democratic National Committee headquarters on Monday as he looks to pep up staff and volunteers with just over two weeks to go before Election Day.
Biden is expected to deliver remarks that look to contrast his plan to lower drug costs for Americans while taking aim at a Republicans who he says will look to cut Medicare and Social Security benefits and look to make permanent the GOP’s 2017 changes to tax rates, according to a Democratic official.
The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to preview Biden’s remarks, said Biden will also discuss job growth, an unemployment rate that hovers near 50-year lows, and declining gasoline prices during his remarks to the DNC’s Washington offices.
In recent weeks, Biden has increased his efforts to emphasize legislative victories for voters while arguing that a Republican majority of the House and Senate would be detrimental to American families.
He delivered a mix of policy and political speeches last week on gasoline prices, his bipartisan infrastructure bill, his push for student debt forgiveness, and the impact of the United States Supreme Court’s June abortion ruling and Republican state legislatures’ efforts to restrict abortion access.
