Biden urges unity at National Prayer Breakfast (AUDIO)
WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden delivered a message of unity at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday.
“In our politics and in our lives, we too often see each other as opponents and not competitors. We see each other as enemies, not neighbors,” Biden said. “And as tough as these times have been, if we look closer, we see the strength, the determination that has long defined America.”
The breakfast was held at the Capitol’s visitor center, and the auditorium’s 450 seats were packed with members of Congress, government officials and others.
Every president since Dwight D. Eisenhower has spoken at the breakfast.
