Quick Glance: Biden Receives Kennedy Family Endorsements in Philadelphia
- President Joe Biden received endorsements from at least 15 members of the Kennedy political family during a campaign stop in Philadelphia to undermine Donald Trump and marginalize the candidacy of independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
- Kerry Kennedy, daughter of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, niece of former President John F. Kennedy, and sister of the current presidential candidate, delivered the endorsements in Philadelphia, calling Biden her hero.
- The decision to highlight the Kennedy family's support more than six months from Election Day indicates how seriously Biden's team is taking a long shot candidate using his last name's lingering Democratic magic.
- Biden used the event to keep up the pressure on Trump, emphasizing the importance of the election not for himself, but to keep Trump out, stating the race was significant due to the potential consequences if they lose this election. The Kennedy family endorsements for Biden were hardly a surprise, as prominent members of the Democratic family did not politically align with Kennedy Jr.

Biden administration bans drilling in nearly half of Alaska petroleum reserve in sweeping win for climate advocates
cnn.com/2024/04/19/climate/alaska-drilling-ban-biden-climate/
Quick Glance: Restrictions on Oil and Gas Leasing in Alaska under Biden Administration
- The Biden administration announced restrictions on new oil and gas leasing on 5.3 million hectares of a federal petroleum reserve in Alaska to protect wildlife from the impacts of climate change.
- The decision finalizes proposed protections that drew backlash from environmentalists last year for violating Biden's climate change pledge.
- The limitation on new leasing faced opposition from Republican lawmakers who criticized the decisions as undermining national security interests.
- Environmentalists praised the decision, while the oil industry labeled it as misguided and raised concerns about future developments in the reserve.
