Biden Returns to White House as Kamala Harris Campaigns in Wisconsin
--------------------------------------------------------------------

President Biden returned to the White House Tuesday after testing
negative for COVID-19. Biden is planning a primetime address from the
Oval Office this evening where, for the first time, he will explain his
decision not to seek reelection in November.

On Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris traveled to Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, for her first campaign rally since she replaced Biden as the
Democrats' presumptive nominee. Harris further cemented her status as
the front-runner when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House
Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries endorsed her candidacy. Since Biden
stepped down, Kamala Harris has raised more than $120 million, a record
in presidential campaign fundraising history.
