The event of 23rd June is the fundraising debut of Obama for his former vice president and will work at the grass-root level to target small-dollar donors. Joe Biden also invites his supporters at twitter to attend their grassroots fundraiser.

The fundraising event of Biden with Warren focused top-dollar donors, with tickets ranging from as a minimum, such as $250 up to a maximum of $100,000. The fundraising event of Biden-Warren came as the progressive champ from Massachusetts and considered one of the candidates to be Biden’s running mate. Besides, it came three days after a big group of over a hundred progressive activists and celebrities such as Jane Fonda – sent a letter to former vice president influencing him to select Warren as his pick for the 2020 vice-presidential nomination of the Democratic Party.

Biden Praised Warren track record and her fearless work

Biden pointed the track record and fearless work of Warren and attacked Wall Street and pushed pro-worker policies – highlighted their common goal to build a stronger and more resilient middle class. The Democratic presumptive nominee continued, Warren, and he agreed that Wall Street did not build the United States. It was the cause of his party’s time to build a stronger middle class, bringing everyone along, not leaving common Americans behind. Biden emphasized that they believe in standing up to the abuse of power.

Warren left far from Biden in 2020 Democratic presidential nomination

Warren is far-off from the first former 2020 presidential nominee of the Democratic party rival who’s team up with former vice president to haul in big funds since he became the presumptive presidential candidate of the party. Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey, Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, Senator Kamala Harris, and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, all in collaboration with each other, hosted fundraisers with the former vice president during the last two months.

The efforts and hard work of these former hopefuls of the White House helped Biden fill his presidential campaign funds. On Monday, Biden announced that his campaign and the Democratic National Committee collectively raised around $80.8 million in May. However, the case of Warren is different, as she frequently forswore to-dollar campaigners with rich donors during her White House bid.

Warren held high-dollar fundraisers during her Senate reelection campaign in 2018. Though along with fellow democratic and 2020 competent Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, she shunned them early in 2019 soon after initiating her campaign for the presidential nomination of her party.
