As the race for the White House draws ever closer, President Joe Biden will likely look to tout his legislative agenda as fuel to propel him to a second term, but there is one area of uncertainty looming over voters: the economy.
The Biden administration has been working to stabilize the economy following a period of rampant inflation, and the efforts do appear to be working; even The Wall Street Journal — with its often conservative editorial board— noted that “stock prices are booming, the job market is strong and inflation is falling in the U.S.” Despite this, Biden does not seem to be gaining political points — while polls show that consumer confidence is growing, overall polling on Biden’s handling of the economy remains low.
As a result, the Biden administration will likely make the economy one of the key messages — if not the key message — of the president’s reelection bid this year. How will the president address his economic agenda and track record leading up to the election?
