Read our privacy policy Joe Biden is joining Senate Democrats for an online lunch Thursday, returning virtually to the place that fostered his political career as he fields questions from allies on the race for the White House and the down-ballot effort to wrest the Senate's majority control from Republicans. A person familiar with Biden’s plans said the call with the Democratic senators will focus on the fall campaign and voter turnout efforts intended to benefit both his presidential campaign, Senate Democrats and other candidates. Still, the senator said, “a lot of good work is going into thinking how to actually tackle the challenge in this moment of crisis that the Trump administration has failed to address.” Biden's longest-serving adviser, Ted Kaufman, who succeeded him in the Senate when he became vice president in 2009, is leading that process. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer joined Speaker Nancy Pelosi at the Capitol on Thursday as Democrats highlighted their proposed national COVID-19 strategy to test and trace caseloads to try to “crush” the pandemic crisis.
