Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden sparked ire on social media after he touched a young girl at a campaign rally despite vowing last month to be more mindful about respecting women’s personal space.

The incident occurred during the American Federation of Teachers town hall on Tuesday, May 28, in Houston, Texas. Biden used the event to promote a new education plan, the first major policy announcement of his campaign.
