WASHINGTON — There were no questions during Thursday’s White House media briefing about what the Biden–Harris administration is doing about the beleaguered city of Springfield, Ohio. No reporter asked press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre whether President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris plan to visit the town that has come to represent what happens when a Midwest manufacturing city of 58,000 absorbs the arrival of some 20,000 migrants.
Imagine a one-third bump in your town’s population over four years. That’s a story.
