President Joe Biden got his giant coronavirus relief bill. Now, he wants to make sure he gets credit.
The president will hold a ceremony tomorrow to sign his $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan into law, kicking off a victory lap that aides and allies describe as a campaign to persuade the nation that he and fellow Democrats are responsible for preventing millions of Americans from enduring poverty and illness.
Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and their spouses plan to fan out across the country and highlight Americans receiving stimulus checks and coronavirus vaccines, as well as businesses that have been able to stay afloat with government loans. That includes presidential travel Tuesday to suburban Philadelphia, where Biden is expected to tout the benefits of his bill.
President Donald Trump plans one last snub to Joe Biden by leaving the White House mere hours before his successor s inauguration ceremony on Wednesday.
