President Biden's Philadelphia Visit: Rebuilding Firehouses and Boosting Funding

President Joe Biden will visit a firehouse in Fairmount, Philadelphia, that is reopening after a devastating blaze last year that killed 12 people. The visit will mark the receipt of a $22.4 million federal grant to the Philadelphia Fire Department, which will fund additional firefighters' salaries, reopen three shuttered fire companies, and pay for a new class of trainees. Biden will emphasize his support for the firefighting community and pay tribute to the victims of the tragic fire. The grant will also fund the reopening of two other fire companies and provide salaries and benefits for 72 firefighters for three years.
