Jill Biden to visit victims of Waukesha Christmas parade tragedy and push Covid-19 vaccinations

The trip comes while President Joe Biden is in Kentucky Wednesday, surveying damage and meeting with people impacted by deadly tornadoes there.

The first lady is the first member of the administration to meet with anyone from Waukesha since the crash that killed six people and injured more than 60. Biden is being joined for her travels by second gentleman Doug Emhoff.

In addition meeting with those affected by the parade, Biden will also greet children who have received the Covid-19 vaccination. This portion of the visit is part of the first lady’s ongoing efforts to raise awareness for children getting the vaccine, for which they are now eligible. Both of these events will take place at Children’s Wisconsin hospital in Milwaukee.
