President Joe Biden will campaign for California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a fellow Democrat, next week ahead of a Sept. 14 recall election date that could see Newsom ousted in favor of a GOP candidate, according to a White House spokesperson.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Tuesday that Biden would go to California “early next week” and said more information would be provided about the trip.
