President Joe Biden spoke alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) at the White House to make the case for his healthcare policies heading into the 2024 election.
The president has slid among progressives since entering office, especially voters under the age of 35, and Biden’s reelection effort is working double time to shore up his winning 2020 electoral coalition before November.
“Despite all the political wealth and political power of the pharmaceutical companies,” he told the crowd in his opening remarks. “Despite all that, the Biden administration and Democrats in Congress are beginning to make some progress.” “This is an issue we must — must — get a handle on,” he continued, adding that it is only possible to do so by “working together.”
“Bernie said it. I was listening in the background, Bernie, you and I’ve been fighting this for 25 years,” the president stated. “Finally, finally, we beat Big Pharma, and I wouldn’t have done it without Bernie.”
