L’Shana Tova - @DrBiden and I wish everyone celebrating a happy and healthy New Year.

On this day 24 years ago, nearly 3,000 lives were stolen by an unconscionable act of cowardice and hate. Terrorists believed they could break our will and bring us to our knees. They were wrong. Together, as Americans, we united in grief and purpose. We found light in darkness.

There is no place in our country for this kind of violence. It must end now. Jill and I are praying for Charlie Kirk’s family and loved ones.

Today is about freedom. It’s about liberty. It’s about who we are. We’re the United States of America, and nothing like it exists in the world. As we celebrate our nation’s independence, we must also remember that democracy is never guaranteed—every generation must fight to

The Republican budget bill is not only reckless — it’s cruel. It slashes Medicaid and takes away health care from millions of Americans. It closes rural hospitals and cuts food assistance for our veterans and seniors. It jacks up energy bills. And it could trigger deep cuts to

Ten years ago, the Supreme Court affirmed a simple proposition: every American should have the right to marry the person they love. As President, I was proud to sign the Respect for Marriage Act to protect that freedom in federal law. Love is love. Right is right. Justice is

One of the proudest moments of my presidency was making Juneteenth a federal holiday. It's a day of liberation. It’s a day of remembrance. And it’s a day of celebration. Today, it was an honor to be in Galveston where freedom rang out 160 years ago.

This heinous attack motivated by politics should never happen in America. We must give hate and extremism no safe harbor and we must all unite against political violence as a nation. Jill and I are sending strength to everyone affected by this senseless tragedy during an
