First Lady Dr. Jill Biden makes multiple stops on her Friday trip to Minnesota

MINNEAPOLIS — First lady Jill Biden visited the Twin Cities on Friday afternoon on a campaign stop.

The first lady made a stop at Nine Mile Brewing in Bloomington, where a St. Cloud State University student joined her on stage to discuss the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Then the first lady, who is also a professor, traveled to her final destination: the annual Education Minnesota convention.
