In the most recent of many visits, the Biden-Harris campaign is reinforcing the importance of Michigan in the upcoming election

LANSING — Ahead of First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff’s three-day tour of Michigan, Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Lavora Barnes celebrates the Biden campaign’s continued dedication to Michigan this cycle. Time and time again, President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have shown up to listen to Michiganders underscoring how crucial Michigan is in 2024.

“We are thrilled to have First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff in Michigan this week as they travel all across the state and emphasize how important Michigan is this cycle. These visits are just another way the Biden campaign is proving the road to the White House runs through Michigan,” said Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Lavora Barnes. “Over the next three days, Dr. Biden and Second Gentleman Emhoff will talk to Michiganders about President Biden and Vice President Harris’ commitment to ensuring access to health care and ensuring women’s rights across all communities.” 

“Unlike Trump’s fly-by visits, which have been nothing more than political stunts filled with lies, the Biden campaign has not only spent time in our communities, but our One Campaign’s on-the-ground infrastructure is second to none. With the President himself coming back to Michigan this Sunday, the First Lady and Second Gentleman’s events in the Upper Peninsula, Detroit, and Midland highlight how the Biden campaign is prioritizing Michigan and earning every vote.”
