Biden's swing-state supporters know little about his accomplishments, PAC memo reveals


Top officials at the pro-President Biden Super PAC Unite the Country sent a memo to donors and surrogates warning that focus groups with swing-state voters revealed that even Biden's supporters know little about his in-office accomplishments, The Washington Post reports.
"There is a real lack of information about the specifics of the Biden agenda," the memo, which was obtained by the Post, reportedly reads. "There is a need to communicate with voters, even among high-information supporters. There wasn't a ton of knowledge about Biden plans."
The news comes amid concern among White House officials and top allies that rising COVID-19 infections will eventually turn the administration's focus fully back toward the pandemic and away from their other goals.
