Biden To Huddle With House Democrats To Discuss Strategy Ahead Of 2024

President Biden and key members of his administration will meet with the House Democrats in Baltimore this evening to kick off a three-day retreat to formulate strategy for the next 18 months.

• A White House official said Biden will use his appearance to “speak to congressional Democrats about building on the progress they have achieved making the economy work from the bottom up and the middle out, as well as combating Republicans’ top-down policies that hurt working Americans.”
• With the prospect of legislating largely ruled out by the split Congress, focus will be on how to effectively convey a message that Democrat legislation from the first two years of the administration can help Democrats win back the House in 2024.
• Biden said in White House remarks on Monday: “Even in your communities, they don’t know what we’ve done. So we’ve got to talk about it,” he continued. “Spread the word. Defend our progress. Finish the job.”
• Vice President Kamala Harris, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan, and infrastructure czar, Mitch Landrieu will also be in attendance.
