Joe Biden turned up at a minority-owned flooring business in suburban Philadelphia on Tuesday to highlight how his $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package can help small businesses, stressing along the way that the massive bill passed without any help from Republican lawmakers.
The visit to Smith Flooring, Inc. was Biden’s first stop in an ongoing cross-country administration roadshow — also involving his vice president and his wife — designed to publicize, and take credit, for the virus relief package.
