Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. served the U.S. Senate from 1973 through 2009. Biden was first elected as a Democratic Senator for Delaware in November 1972, and sworn into office at age 30 on January 3, 1973; he was re-elected six times. He was Delaware's longest-serving senator. Biden was the 47th Vice president to serve with President Barak Obama from 2009-2017. After a short break from politics, Biden returned to campaign for the Democratic nomination for President in 2020. He defeated incumbent Donald Trump to become the 46th President to serve the United States in 2021. Biden is the oldest president to have been elected as of 2021 and the first one to have a female vice president.  His current platform is known for advancing climate change policies. This artifact is likely from one of his many Senate campaigns.
