First lady Jill Biden toured the Christa McAuliffe School in Concord, New Hampshire Wednesday afternoon. Her visit included stopping by a 5th-grade classroom.
“You know, as a teacher for over 30 years, I feel most at home in a classroom,” she said.
Biden’s trip is part of the White House’s Help Is Here tour to highlight the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan.
The Covid-19 relief plan, which was signed into law by President Biden last week, will provide most Americans with $1,400 direct payments. It also provides $130 billion to deliver on the president’s goal of opening the majority of K-8 schools within his first 100 days in office.
