President Joe Biden will participate in a CNN town hall on Thursday in Baltimore, where he’ll take questions as his administration continues to sell his ambitious legislative agenda to members of Congress and the nation.

The town hall will take place at a critical time for the Biden administration, as the President continues his push to sell the public on his infrastructure plans. Biden is meeting this week with lawmakers to etch out the framework of his infrastructure proposals – a sweeping economic package to expand the social safety net and a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill.

The 90-minute event is expected to focus on a range of issues that the Biden administration is grappling with, including voting rights, coronavirus and infrastructure. The event also comes following the White House’s announcement of a detailed plan to vaccinate children ages 5 to 11.

Amid the ongoing debate over key pieces of his agenda and on the back end of a challenging stretch in the coronavirus pandemic, Americans are divided over Biden’s approval rating. A recent CNN poll shows that 50% approve while 49% disapprove, largely unchanged from a CNN poll conducted in August and September.
