Biden visits Tampa to talk health care as 2024 race looms
TAMPA — President Joe Biden took Air Force One to Tampa on Thursday to tout the accomplishments of his administration so far, and to try to convince Floridians that he is the leader who will help reduce health care costs in the state with the highest percentage of seniors in the country.
In a likely preview of messaging for his yet-to-be-announced reelection campaign, Biden made his case for why he wants to “finish the job” on several of his priorities. The policy-heavy speech in a small, packed room at the University of Tampa’s Plant Hall borrowed much of its material from his State of the Union.
