Biden to visit West Coast for fundraising swing
President Biden is set to travel to San Francisco and Seattle this week for a West Coast fundraising swing as he ramps up his campaign efforts.
He will travel on Thursday to San Francisco and participate in two campaign receptions in the Bay Area on Friday. He will then travel to Seattle on Friday and participate in campaign receptions there over the weekend.
The president traveled to the Democratic-friendly San Francisco Bay Area multiple times over the last year, including in February when he fundraised in Silicon Valley. On that trip, he also campaigned in Los Angeles.
The president traveled to San Francisco in November for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, a high-stakes meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and held a campaign fundraiser in the city’s Financial District.
The latest trip to rake in cash comes as the campaign launched a $14 million May ad buy to focus on reaching Black, Latino, and Asian Americans. The campaign plans to have more than 500 staff and 200 offices open by the end of May and it has $192 million in cash on hand.
Biden on Wednesday is traveling to Wisconsin and Chicago, Ill., for campaign events and then will return to the White House before leaving for the West Coast.
