President Joe Biden and other Cabinet officials are planning more than three dozen events in the coming weeks to highlight the climate, healthcare, and corporate tax legislation Democrats passed last week, as the White House hopes the legislation can provide late momentum ahead of November’s midterm elections.

Biden is expected to sign the bill this week but hold a celebration in Washington on Sept. 6, after lawmakers have returned from their summer recess. Biden also plans to hold a Cabinet meeting and “will travel across the country to highlight how the Inflation Reduction Act will save money on prescription drugs, cut health care premiums, and cut energy costs,” Chief of Staff Ron Klain said in a memo distributed by the White House.
