Mr. Biden is set to visit a small business in suburban Philadelphia on Tuesday, his initial trip outside Washington for the “Help is here” tour that got under way on Monday. Vice-President Kamala Harris dropped in on a COVID-19 vaccination site and a culinary academy in Las Vegas while First Lady Jill Biden toured a New Jersey elementary school. “We want to avoid a situation where people are unaware of what they’re entitled to,” Ms. Harris said. “It’s not selling it; it literally is letting people know their rights. Think of it more as a public education campaign.”
