Biden Presser At The White House Ahead Of Voter Rights Showdown

US

The presser is scheduled for 16:00 ET 21:00 GMT and a link will be provided when it begins.


Today President Joe Biden is giving his first solo presser in eight months. The presser comes at a particularly difficult time for the Democrats with their agenda stalled in the Senate, low presidential approval ratings, and a lack of clarity over the future of key White House policies.


Here are some questions Biden should be expecting:

  • What is the strategy on voter rights?
  • What concessions will be made to Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) on Build Back Better?
  • What is the government’s position on Pfizer’s ‘Covid pill’?
  • Is there a plan in place for ‘living with Covid’ or is the government still intending to eradicate Covid?
  • Will the government ditch its plans for vaccination mandates?
  • What are the government’s long-term plans for dealing with inflation?
