Former Vice President Joe Biden made a stop at Los Angeles Trade Technical College for his presidential campaign this past Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden addressed the audience his plan to make community college free if elected president. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou are at a community college, and it should be free, it would cost $6 billion a year to make sure that everyone qualifies for community college, if you eliminate one tax loophole called stepped-up basis, every single solitary person who qualifies for community college can attend community college for free,\u201d Biden said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden initially started by acknowledging the Saugus High School shooting in Santa Clarita that killed two students and left three wounded earlier that Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden promised to take on the NRA if elected president in November of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
