BALTIMORE — President Joe Biden will visit Baltimore this week — his second trip to the city in three weeks — and tout the just-passed infrastructure package and its effect on ports and supply chains, the White House said Sunday.
The president will tour the Port of Baltimore on Wednesday.
He made his first visit to the city as chief executive on Oct. 21, when he answered questions at CNN town hall.
The House late Friday night gave final approval to legislation intended to improve roads, bridges, transit systems, broadband and bolster Chesapeake Bay restoration.
The measure will upgrade the nation’s ports and strengthen supply chains “to prevent disruptions,” the White House said in a news release announcing the Baltimore visit.
