Biden to visit Baltimore port amid supply chain, inflation woes
President Joe Biden plans to visit Baltimore on Wednesday to tout his infrastructure bill and highlight his administration's work to ease port delays as the United States approaches the holiday season with rising inflation and delivery slowdowns on the horizon.
Biden's visit comes five days after Congress passed his $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that, among myriad investments in the nations' physical infrastructure, will provide $17 billion to revitalize coastal, inland and land ports, as well as strengthen them against the effects of climate change.
The Biden administration on Tuesday announced short- and long-term steps to strengthen U.S. ports as part of an effort to tackle supply chain issues, including using money from the infrastructure bill.
As the U.S. continues to slowly emerge from the pandemic, Biden has been grappling with a crisis up and down the supply chain defined by worker shortages and bottlenecks.

That is good governance.
