“#Governors rip Biden’s absence from weekly COVID calls<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

President Joe Biden has been absent from his administration\u2019s weekly coronavirus calls with US governors since taking office \u2014 leaving some of the state leaders up in arms, a report said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a real frustration, I think it\u2019s safe to say, for all 50 governors,\u201d New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu told RealClearPolitics<\/a> about Biden\u2019s lack of attendance on the conference calls to coordinate a state and federal response to the pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would go a long way if the president would just get on the phone, or the vice president would get on the phone and take questions,\u201d Sununu said. <\/p>\n

Former President Donald Trump took part in 8 of his administration\u2019s 40 COVID conference calls. <\/p>\n

Former Vice President Mike Pence, who led the former administration\u2019s coronavirus task force, led all but one of the calls.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Biden hasn\u2019t been on any of them,\u201d Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts told the outlet.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt really is not the type of bipartisan partnership that the president promised when he came into office in his inaugural address,\u201d Ricketts said.<\/p>\n

Vice President Kamala Harris has dialed into one of the meetings since taking office, staying on the line for shortly, according to Ricketts.<\/p>\n

But Harris, unlike her predecessor, does not lead the Biden\u2019s administration\u2019s COVID-19 team.<\/p>\n

And with the change of administration, a new strategy was adopted to place New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in charge of the calls as chairman of the National Governors Association, the report said, citing White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were operational aspects of the way the last administration app<\/a>roached COVID and approached the distribution of vaccines or approached planning and engagement with governors that wasn\u2019t working,\u201d Psaki has said about the reasons for switching things up.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
