First Lady Jill Biden to make campaign stop in Columbus
ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - First Lady Dr. Jill Biden will be in Columbus on Monday as part of an ongoing effort to muster up votes ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
The first lady is expected to launch the “Veterans and Military Families for Biden-Harris” program which aims to rally military voters in key battleground states.
“Our veterans and military families are the brave and the bold—who step forward for all of us. They deserve a commander in chief who respects their bravery and understands personally their sacrifice—not one who denigrates them for being willing to put their lives on the line for our democracy,” said Campaign Manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez. “Veterans and Military Families for Biden-Harris will help underscore the stark contrast voters will see in November: Donald Trump has no respect for our men and women in uniform, their families, or the freedoms many of them fought to defend, calling fallen soldiers suckers and losers. Joe Biden is a military father who understands the importance of fighting for veterans every day to earn their support at the ballot box.”
Dr. Biden will tour three cities with high military populations: Columbus, Georgia, Wilmington, North Carolina and Tampa, Florida.
It comes as President Biden’s halting debate performance in Atlanta against Former President Donald Trump is leading the Democratic Party to question his candidacy.
