This week, President Biden hit the road to highlight how Democrats are delivering for the American people and call out MAGA Republican extremism. Last night in Philadelphia, the president called out MAGA Republican officials’ attacks on democracy and rallied the country around protecting the soul of the nation. And in Wilkes-Barre Tuesday, President Biden emphasized that while MAGA Republicans voted against funding that has benefited law enforcement, Democrats are investing in making our communities safer.
