“Nothing and no one will stand in our way,” Dr. Biden said.

That was Dr. Jill Biden’s message to seniors at the Brown County Library and she encouraged them to vote.

Green Bay is one of several stops this week for the “Seniors for Biden-Harris” coalition.

The Biden-Harris administration says the coalition is emphasizing issues for America’s seniors, particularly those in battleground states.

She says President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris aim to keep prescription drug costs low and strengthen Social Security and Medicare benefits.

“We will continue this progress, ensuring that all Americans can afford their medications, ensuring that everyone can age with dignity, building a better future for our children and our grandchildren,” said the Dr. Jill Biden.

Shortly after Dr. Biden’s speech, she returned to the airport for her next stop in Duluth, Minnesota.
