The event is intended to draw attention to Biden’s domestic agenda which has been marred by record-high inflation and a sluggish economic recovery, and overshadowed by Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine abroad.

Biden “will take additional action to further strengthen the ACA and save families hundreds of dollars a month on their health care,” the White House said.
