President Joe Biden asked a crowd at a hunger conference to point out Republican Rep. Jackie Walorski – after she was killed in a car crash in Indiana last month.
Biden, 79, named the late congresswoman while thanking lawmakers from both parties for their efforts in helping his plan to end hunger in the United States by 2030 in a Washington D.C. speech on Wednesday.
‘Jackie, are you here? Where’s Jackie?’ the president asked during the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health in Washington, DC after also praising Senators Mike Braun, a Republican, and Cory Booker, a Democrat.
