President Joe Biden is sending senior aides to Michigan on Thursday to meet with Arab American and Muslim leaders, according to three people familiar with the matter, as his administration's handling of the Israel-Hamas war frustrates members of a key constituency in a 2024 battleground state. “I’m going into that room and making it clear that the frustrations are that a cease-fire needs to be called,” said Michigan state Rep.
