Biden is trying to show Congress that he has made significant progress and push Congress to do more.
New infrastructure spending will be a key component, just like many of Biden’s recent visits.
According to the White House, he will visit Portland’s airport to discuss investing in a runway that can withstand an earthquake.
Biden will likely reiterate his call for Congress to pass legislation to lower the price of prescription drugs. He will also highlight executive actions, such as the extension of the freeze on student loans payments and the tweaking of the Affordable Care Act.
Biden will also be involved in politics. Biden will be attending a fundraiser for Democratic National Committee in Portland.
Biden will spend Thursday and Friday in Seattle. He plans to speak about price control and observe Earth Day.
