0:55Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden will visit voters in the key swing state of Pennsylvania on Tuesday as part of an effort to persuade Americans that the $1.9 trillion relief measure he signed will help struggling individuals and businesses.
The first stop on Biden’s trip will be Chester, just south of Philadelphia, to highlight the law’s nearly $56 billion for small businesses.
The White House wants to underscore to Americans that the legislation Biden championed -- and was only supported by Democrats -- is central to jump-starting an economy battered by a year of lockdowns and job losses set off by the coronavirus. Biden is seeking to counter Republicans’ message that the measure was too costly and an excuse to fund liberal priorities.
Vice President Kamala Harris began traveling the country on Monday to sell the rescue plan, making her first stop in Nevada. Biden and Harris will cap the week in Georgia to pitch the measure. Nevada, Georgia and Pennsylvania are all key presidential battleground states and also have Senate races in 2022.
