Senior policy figures allied with presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden and his former rival Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) will work together in joint task forces in a bid to cement party unity ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

Each of the six task forces has eight members and will be focused on health care, immigration, education, criminal justice reform, climate change, and the economy. They will seek to hammer out a consensus on six top policy issues and rally unified support behind Biden as he seeks to challenge President Donald Trump for the White House in November.
