Many priorities popular among the Democratic base, including voting rights legislation and climate action, got very little air time during Biden's remarks.This episode: White House correspondent Scott Detrow, White House correspondent Ayesha Rascoe, and congressional correspondent Susan Davis.Connect:Email the show at nprpolitics@npr.orgJoin the NPR Politics Podcast Facebook Group.Subscribe to the NPR Politics Newsletter.Find and support your local public radio station.
