9/21 Daily Dose of Joe

Friends -- see below for today's Dose of Joe.

• Today, Joe Biden will travel to Manitowoc, Wisconsin, where he will deliver remarks at 3:15 EST PM. You can watch HERE.

• In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Joe Biden delivered remarks on the passing of Justice Ginsburg. In his remarks, Biden underscored the need for the President inaugurated in January to nominate Justice Ginsburg’s successor and powerfully reinforced the importance of who is on the Supreme Court - because of their impact on the lives of American families. You can watch his speech HERE.

• Joe Biden released a statement on the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. In his statement, Biden recognized Justice Ginsburg as a “giant of legal doctrine, and a relentless voice in the pursuit of that highest American ideal: Equal Justice Under Law.”

• Yesterday, Senator Kamala Harris penned an op-ed in the Tampa Bay Times and El Nuevo Día in honor of the anniversary of Hurricane Maria devastating Puerto Rico on September 20, 2017. In solidarity with Puerto Ricans both in Puerto Rico and the United States, Senator Harris remembers the 2,975 people who died during the disaster and honors the survivors’ uniquely human resilience in the face of hard times.

• Yesterday, on the third anniversary of Hurricane Maria, Biden for President announced a new bilingual ad, “Prohibido Olvidar (watch in Spanish here),” playing homage to the survivors of Hurricane Maria, and the strength of the people of Puerto Rico.

• The campaign aired two new national ads, “Homeschool” and “Moving Again,” during the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards that feature a mother from Wisconsin and highlights how Donald Trump’s failed leadership during the pandemic has left our schools closed and upended the lives of working families.

• A new nationwide NBC News/WSJ poll shows Biden leading Trump 51%-43%.

JOE’S SOCIAL MEDIA TO AMPLIFY
TWITTER

@joebiden: Honor and decency are on the ballot this November.

@joebiden: It was my honor to preside over Justice Ginsburg’s confirmation hearings, and to support her accession to the Supreme Court. Her opinions, and her dissents, will shape the basis of our law for generations to come — and we’ll be a more just and equal nation because of it.

@joebiden: The Supreme Court is on the ballot. And the outcome will impact everything from health care to civil rights — affecting generations to come. Vote. Our future depends on it.
