10/30 Daily Dose of Joe

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

• Yesterday, in Florida, the contrast between Joe Biden’s socially distanced drive-in rallies and President Trump’s reckless super spreader event was on full display as COVID cases surge across the country just five days to Election Day. In Broward and Tampa, Joe Biden thanked supporters for wearing masks and socially distancing while in Tampa, Trump’s maskless crowd stood shoulder-to-shoulder chanting “lock him up” when Trump attacked Biden. You can watch Biden’s Broward event HERE and his Tampa event HERE.

• Joe Biden will travel to Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin to discuss bringing Americans together to address the crises facing the country and winning the battle for the soul of the nation. Vice President Biden will deliver remarks at a drive-in event in Des Moines, Iowa followed by a drive-in event in St. Paul, Minnesota and ending the day at an event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. You can watch all events HERE.

• Kamala Harris will travel to Fort Worth, McAllen, and Houston, Texas. In the afternoon, Senator Harris will participate in a voter mobilization event in Fort Worth. Later, Senator Harris will participate in an event with former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián Castro and former Congressman Beto O’Rourke in McAllen. In the evening, Senator Harris will participate in a voter mobilization event in Houston.

• Dr. Biden will travel to Pennsylvania to participate in an Educators Mobilization Rally with local educators and union members in the National Education Association (NEA) and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) around the power of their vote.

• Doug Emhoff will join voter mobilization events in Las Vegas, Nevada for the last day of in-person early voting in the state. Emhoff will lead a Get Out the Early Vote drive-in car rally with Congresswoman Susie Lee. Then, he will kick off a canvass shift with Congresswoman Dina Titus to get out the vote with volunteers.

• Yesterday, The Christian Post published an op-ed by Vice President Joe Biden, detailing how his values, rooted in his personal faith, have guided his politics over the course of his career in public service.

• This week, Joe Biden penned an op-ed in Indian Country Today about his plan to follow through on our commitments to Native peoples – to ensure tribal sovereignty and self-governance, and fulfill our federal trust and treaty responsibilities to tribal nations.

JOE’S SOCIAL MEDIA TO AMPLIFY

TWITTER

@JoeBiden: This storm will pass, and a new day will come.

@JoeBiden: This election is about so much more than policy. The character of our country is on the ballot. And @KamalaHarris and I will work every day to bring this country back together — fighting as hard for those who don’t support us as those who do.
