Biden, Harris to meet virtually with US mayors amid coronavirus surge
President-elect Joe Biden plans to speak with mayors on Monday amid the continuing surge of COVID-19 cases in the United States. Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris are scheduled to meet virtually with the United States Conference of Mayors, a nonpartisan organization that includes over 1,400 leaders of cities in the U.S. whose populations exceed 30,000 people. Biden and Harris will take part in the meeting from Wilmington. Del.
The meeting follows a one between Biden, Harris and a bipartisan group of governors last Thursday that focused on how his incoming administration would address the coronavirus pandemic. Biden has made confronting the pandemic a central focus of his presidential campaign and now his planning to take office come January.
President Trump, in contrast, has regularly downplayed the virus and increasing cases, and has been absent from meetings of the White House coronavirus task force.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany also sent a sharply different signal than the CDC last week when she criticized guidelines put in place by states like Oregon and New York as “Orwellian.”

As a President and VP should do.
