Former President Biden to headline Nebraska Dems event in Omaha

Former President Joe Biden is scheduled to speak in Omaha Friday evening as part of the Nebraska Democratic Party’s annual Ben Nelson Gala. Biden’s speech will mark a rare public appearance for the 46th president, who has largely stayed out of the spotlight during his post-presidency. Nebraska Democratic Party Chair Jane Kleeb said she was able to get Biden to come to Omaha due to his special connection to the state party. Kleeb also serves as the Democratic National Committee’s Vice Chair.
