Biden looks for dead Indiana Republican during White House news conference

Biden accidentally traced the late Republican Representative of Indiana, Jackie Walorsky, to a news conference. Walorsky was killed along with two associates in a car accident in August. “Jackie are you here? Where’s Jackie?” Biden said, in a slip-up that would certainly fuel Republican attacks.

Biden was speaking at a White House conference on hunger, nutrition and health when he thanked bipartisan elected officials who introduced the law to call a conference.
