Biden campaigns in Southfield, talks protecting and expanding access to affordable health care

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden made his first campaign stop in Oakland County on Friday to discuss how he would protect and expand access to affordable health care.

Biden spoke inside an empty gymnasium at the Beech Woods Recreation Center, located in Southfield. The visit comes one day following Biden's ABC News town hall in Pennsylvania.

Later in the day, Biden attended a virtual meeting with African American faith leaders. He then stopped at the former State Fairgrounds in Detroit to speak at a voter mobilization event, urging Michiganders to vote early in person at their local clerk's office or satellite voting center, which will be pooled press.

This was Biden's third trip to Michigan since September with recent trips also made by his running mate, U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris, and her husband, Doug Emhoff.
