PHILADELPHIA—President Joe Biden on April 18 traveled to Philadelphia, the final stop of his three-day tour of Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state, where he received the Kennedy family’s endorsement for his reelection campaign.

More than 15 members of the Kennedy family, who had previously criticized Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent bid for the White House, endorsed President Biden at a campaign event in Philadelphia.
