President Biden on Wednesday tried to appeal to law enforcement officers by listing ways that his administration has helped police in America, even as police unions flock to former President Donald Trump.
President Joe Biden greets local police officers as he arrives to depart Pennsylvania on Air Force One at Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport, Wednesday, April 17, 2024, in Scranton, Pa.
“Since day one of my presidency, I’ve been working to make sure you have the tools you need to protect, partners you need in the community to help,” Mr. Biden said. Mr. Biden also has signed a huge package of gun measures, which include incentives for states to pass red flag laws that allow groups to petition courts to remove weapons from people deemed a threat; and expand laws that prevent people convicted of domestic abuse from owning a gun and increase background checks.
