have long been at the heart of Biden's political efforts, as he headquartered his 2020 campaign in the city and the state was one of a handful that had voted for Donald Trump in 2016 but flipped back to Democrats four years later.
Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, said some union members supported Trump in the past because "there is a lot of grievance in this country and there is a lot of unhappiness.

Biden is "going to feel very, very comfortable when he’s in Philadelphia.

He pushed for a coordinated endorsement of Biden’s reelection campaign from top unions early in the cycle.
Until now, Biden's primary campaign activity has been fundraising. He raised cash at a private home in Greenwich, Connecticut, on Friday and will head to fundraisers in California, Maryland, Illinois and New York ahead of the second quarter fundraising deadline on June 30.
