Michelle Obama and Jill Biden were booed at NASCAR’s season finale at the Homestead-Miami Speedway on Sunday. The First Lady and the Vice President’s wife were attending the race in support of their Joining Forces program. Part of the program was created to encourage new commitments by companies planning to hire and train veterans and military spouses.
It should be noted that the women received a standing ovation at the pre-race drivers’ meeting Sunday. Michelle Obama said NASCAR has been “amazing in terms of its support, not just today but every day for military families.”
