Biden to Attend Major Fundraiser in Los Angeles
The star-studded event, hosted by notable figures including Steven Spielberg, is part of a broader fundraising effort by the President.
- President Joe Biden is set to attend a major fundraiser in Los Angeles next week, his first since long-term strikes by writers and actors ended.
- The event, expected to raise millions, will take place at the home of celebrity interior designer Michael Smith and his partner James Costos, a former HBO executive and President Barack Obama’s ambassador to Spain.
- Hosts include Steven Spielberg, his wife Kate Capshaw, and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Guests include recording industry mogul David Geffen, director Shonda Rhimes, and director Rob Reiner.
- More fundraisers for Biden are being planned in Boston, Washington, Maryland, and Philadelphia.
- The Los Angeles event is part of a broader fundraising swing by Biden as he tries to stockpile cash for what will likely be a grueling rematch against Republican Donald Trump.
