President Biden set to visit Denver and Pueblo this week

President Joe Biden is scheduled to visit Colorado this week for two different stops. The plans come after a visit to Pueblo in southern Colorado were canceled last month.

Mr. Biden will be in Denver on Tuesday for a campaign event. Then the president will head south to Pueblo on Wednesday where he plans to visit CS Wind, the largest wind tower manufacturer in the world.

He is expected to tout his economic plan and investments in clean energy.

"We are thrilled to welcome President Joe Biden," wrote Gov. Jared Polis in a prepared statement. "Colorado is leading the nation in transitioning to 100% renewable energy, and our wind manufacturing capabilities are helping to power our clean energy economy, create jobs, and save people money on electricity."

Mr. Biden and his family spent Thanksgiving in Nantucket, Massachusetts, per their family's tradition.
