Joe Biden Backs Creation of National American Latino Museum

Former Vice President Joe Biden is endorsing the creation of a new national museum to honor the role that Latinos have played in “American history over the past 500 years.”.

The presumptive Democrat nominee, who struggled to connect with younger Hispanic voters, touted his support for the issue on Tuesday while unveiling his agenda to address economic and social inequalities in the Latino community.

The former vice president’s endorsement comes only a week after the Democrat controlled House of Representatives passed a resolution to begin the initial process of establishing a museum dedicated to the American Latino community.

Biden’s endorsement of the museum also comes as the presumptive nominee seeks to boost his standing among Latino voters ahead of the general election.
