LIVE VIDEO: Biden Speaks About Decision To Exit Race

CBS News reports:

President Biden will speak about his decision not to run for reelection in an Oval Office address Wednesday night, his first remarks on the subject since he announced Sunday he was dropping out of the 2024 presidential race.

“I have decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation,” he is expected to say, according to an excerpt released by the White House. “That is the best way to unite our nation.”

For the remaining six months in his term, Mr. Biden plans to be focused on the job of the presidency and is expected to promise, “I will continue to lower costs for hard-working families and grow our economy. I will keep defending our personal freedoms and our civil rights – from the right to vote – to the right to choose.”
