SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — First Lady Jill Biden visited San Diego on Saturday for a fundraising event supporting the president's reelection campaign.
During her last appearance in America's Finest City back in February, the first lady visited military families and cancer researchers.
On Friday, she spent the day in Seattle and visited a cancer center to provide an update on the White House's Cancer Moonshot initiative. She also spoke at a Biden Victory Fund event. Before visiting San Diego, Biden made a stop in Los Angeles for another fundraising event.
The first lady landed at the San Diego International Airport around 2:15 p.m. Mayor Todd Gloria greeted the first lady when she landed. Saturday's fundraiser was held at a Rancho Santa Fe estate.
Cameras were not allowed at the event, but according to a written report, the First Lady said "We know what's in store if the extreme MAGA Republicans return to power."
Meanwhile, Gloria framed the visit as an opportunity for Southern California, not the presidential election.
"I appreciate the time that they spend here. It helps us get our issues in front of the administration," Gloria said.
