Biden Plans ‘First-Of-Its-Kind’ Fundraiser With Former Presidents Clinton and Obama

President Joe Biden is taking a new approach to his campaign strategy as the election year kicks off.


As the election year kicks off, President Joe Biden is taking a new approach to his campaign strategy. The current incumbent plans to host an innovative fundraiser with former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. 

According to NBC News, the event aims to motivate the Democratic electorate as the election appears to be a rematch between former President Trump and Biden. The news outlet’s Washington-based managing editor, Carol Lee, revealed the exclusive details on the “first of its kind” fundraiser while contributing to NBC’s Meet The Press

“The Biden campaign is trying to organize a fundraiser with President Biden, former President Obama, and former President Clinton. The three of them headlining a fundraiser, they hope it raises a ton of money. No date has been set, but it is likely to happen in the spring, March or April,” explained Lee on the show.

The journalist mentioned not only the occasion’s monetary hopes but also its intention of “energizing” voters to take action. 

“They want to raise a lot of money with that but also energize Democrats who have not shown a lot of enthusiasm for the Biden ticket in 2024. And it’s just part of this strategy of this ‘all hands on deck’ approach that we’ve seen from Democratic Party leaders,” said Lee. “One Biden advisor said, ‘Look, the fact they’re doing this this early in the year really underscores that it is everybody trying to get on board and get Biden over the finish line.’” 

While no further details were revealed, the Biden-Harris ticket has already begun numerous events and campaign strategies to reach their electorate directly, including Black voters. Recent advertisements have highlighted the administration’s work on behalf of the community. Vice President Harris has also embarked on a Fight For Reproductive Freedoms Tour to remind voters that abortion rights are still in jeopardy, and this election is pivotal in protecting women’s right to choose and bodily autonomy. 

As the 2020 rematch between Trump and Biden is all but guaranteed for this year, both contenders are pulling out all the stops for what is looking to be a close race.
