President Joe Biden will return to Philadelphia on Friday, October 13, his eighth trip to the city this year.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that “he will deliver remarks about his ‘Bidenomics’ agenda, his support for organized labor, investments in infrastructure, and combatting climate change.”

The visit is at least his 14th to Philadelphia since the start of 2021. Outside of Washington, D.C., and his home state of Delaware, no city has hosted the president more frequently over the last two years.

According to The Inquirer, “Biden’s attention on the city underscores how critical Democrats see Philadelphia to the president’s reelection prospects ahead of the 2024 election. It is the largest city in a key swing state, and there are nearly 800,000 registered Democrats living in the city.”

The Inquirer continues:

The president has made his support for organized labor a key tenet of his economic agenda and his reelection campaign. He has also frequently promoted the $1 trillion federal infrastructure spending law, saying it will create thousands of jobs for building trades and construction workers.
