Lady Gaga joined presidential candidate Joe Biden and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, at a campaign event in Pittsburgh on Monday, on top of two other events in the area.
Joe Biden kicked off a canvas with union workers and union leaders at the Beaver County Community College. Beaver County is expected to be pivotal in this election.
Biden also spoke at a drive-in event in Homewood with African American community members. He talked about racial injustice and acknowledges those who have died at the hand of police.
He also spent a great deal of time talking about COVID-19, particularly how it is disproportionately impacting the Black community.
He said if he is elected president, he will begin getting the virus under control on the first day he’s in office.
A number of Black elected officials took to the stage before Biden arrived.
State Rep. Ed Gainey was one of them. He said it’s crucial for Black people to get out and vote.
