IN THE STATES: From Scranton to Seattle, Americans Are Crediting President Biden with Getting U.S. Back on Track in First 100 Days

This week, as President Biden marked his 100th day in office, the Democratic National Committee launched a billboard campaign across the country, anchored in the president’s hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania. State parties across the country highlighted how the Biden-Harris administration has already delivered on its commitment to put the pandemic in the rearview mirror with vaccines in arms, checks in hands, and more than one million jobs created since he took office. And Americans across the country read about how the American Families Plan will invest in their kids and families and enable those who dropped out of the workforce – particularly the approximately two million women who left due to COVID-19 – to rejoin and stay in the workforce.

Here’s a look at what voters in states across the country were reading — and seeing — this week:

The Democratic National Committee unveiled an updated billboard campaign across the country and a new billboard in President Biden’s hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania to thank the president for getting America back on track.
