Photo. We begin with nbcs Aaron Gilchrist in New Hampshire where President Biden just touched down a short time ago. Aaron, what are we expecting there . Reporter chris, good afternoon, we expect to hear from the president near the bottom of the hour here, and this is an official event as opposed to the Campaign Events we saw on saturday and on friday in philadelphia area, and in atlanta. Today the president s focus as we understand it from a white house official, will be on lowering health care costs, something he talked about during the state of the Union Address and will reiterate today, highlighting in particular his call on congress to make some changes to enact some policies that he believes would Lower Health Care costs, proposals that are in the president s budget that was released today, the 2025 budget.
