President Joe Biden accused Republicans, including Donald Trump, of embracing economic policies that hurt Black Americans, a voting bloc whose support will be crucial if he’s to win a second term in November.

“Let’s be clear. Republicans are against so many critical actions that help working and middle-class people, especially Black Americans,” Biden said at an event Wednesday in Wisconsin, his third trip to the battleground state this year.
