U.S. first lady Jill Biden on Monday embarked on a fundraising tour to build up President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign coffers, telling a well-heeled Manhattan crowd of nearly 50 people that her husband “knows how to get things done.” | Reuters
“Tell them to be optimistic, because I am, so let’s finish the job,” she said, relaying the president’s message at the event attended by Reuters.
President Biden raised more than $1 billion in 2020 and faces questions from donors about whether the 80-year-old should pass the torch to younger leadership. The campaign, which officially launched on April 25, plans to ramp up fundraising events. President Biden is expected to hold his own events with large donors in California and Illinois, starting next week.
