WASHINGTON (AP) – President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris next week they will make their first trip together since Biden ended his candidacy and Harris took over as Democratic standard-bearer.
The White House announced Friday morning that Biden and Harris will come to Maryland on Aug. 15 for an event to “discuss the progress they are making to reduce costs for the American people.” They did not release the location or further details.
Biden and Harris have appeared briefly together since the president ended his bid for re-election on July 21, including a Joint Base Andrews tour last week to welcome home U.S. citizens who were unjustly detained in Russia. They also attended a Situation Room meeting earlier this week to discuss the situation in the Middle East and had lunch together last week.
Taking additional steps to reduce costs is an area Biden plans to focus on in the final months of his presidency.
