Our country is stronger, our lives are safer and our futures are brighter because of @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris’ victory today. The decisive action of the American people over the last week has brought us to a new chapter. Now, it’s our duty to write it. #BuildBackBetter
Last year, we secured the release of Abigail, a 4-year-old who was being held by Hamas.
She’s remarkable and recovering from unspeakable trauma.
Our time together yesterday was a reminder of the work we have in front of us to secure the release of all remaining hostages.
“We express our full solidarity and support to Israel and its people and reaffirm our commitment towards its security.”
G7 Leaders’ Statement on Iran’s Attack Against Israel
🇺🇸🇫🇷🇨🇦🇯🇵🇩🇪🇬🇧🇮🇹
At the direction of @POTUS, the U.S. military moved aircraft and ballistic missile defense destroyers to the region over the course of the past week. Thanks to these deployments + servicemembers, we helped Israel take down nearly all of the incoming drones and missiles. 🇺🇸🇮🇱
"I want to say thank you to Biden. Because of Biden I'm still alive and I can sit here and talk to you...and Keith, my husband, is such a sweet, generous, loving person, everybody loves him. And he's still there [being held hostage]."
“…Joe believed in a shared purpose of serving something bigger than ourselves…Jewish liturgy says of “those who serve the needs of the community faithfully, may God grant them their reward.”

I hosted Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant at the Pentagon today for a bilateral meeting to discuss the importance of an approach to military operations in Rafah that prioritizes the protection of civilians, the dire humanitarian situation across Gaza, and threats to regional security.

The Biden @WhiteHouse isn't calling for a unilateral ceasefire -- they're calling on Hamas to accept a six week ceasefire deal that's currently on the table, which includes the release of hostages.
Also -- both @POTUS & @VP have emphasized their commitment to Israel's security & the threat Hamas poses to the people of Israel, which must be eliminated.
Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we mourn one of the darkest chapters in history, when six million Jews and countless others were systematically murdered.
It's our responsibility to stand up to Antisemitism and hate-fueled violence everywhere.
WATCH: Emhoff says American Jews are feeling "alone, hated and unmoored," in particular since Oct. 7.
"We kind of saw who our friends were and who our friends weren't — and there were too many in the 'weren't' category, some who we thought were friends. It's just shocking."
We condemn the abhorrent terrorist attacks in Raanana that killed one Israeli and wounded others and send our deepest condolences to the victims' families.
Thank you @JoeBiden for the work you’ve done to secure the release of the hostages, and the time you have spent with the hostages’ families.
Everyday is too many.
#BringThemAllHomeNow
Statement from @POTUS Marking 100 Days of Captivity for Hostages in Gaza
“No one should have to endure even one day of what they have gone through, much less 100. On this terrible day, I again reaffirm my pledge to all the hostages and their families—we are with you.“
Thank you @DouglasEmhoff, for continuing your efforts to combat antisemitism and hate.
You are an inspiration for Jewish students to continue being proudly Jewish.

Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff spoke privately with Jewish leaders at the Chabad of Charleston, discussing his role in combatting antisemitism across the country.

I was pleased to speak this evening with @VP Kamala Harris who stressed the steadfast commitment of @POTUS Joe Biden, along with her own and that of the Administration, to the well-being and security of the State of Israel.
I thanked her for the US’s continued support for Israel’s right and duty to defend itself - on all its borders.
I also thanked her for the US’s ongoing efforts to see all the hostages returned home - which must be an urgent priority for the whole world.
🇺🇸🤝🇮🇱
Thank you @JoeBiden for your unwavering support for Israel while it fights Hamas terror.
Thank you for leading the effort to return all the hostages #BringThemAllHome.
Thank you for pursuing long term peace in the region, including through a two-state solution.
.@Isaac_Herzog: "I'm utterly grateful to" @POTUS "on behalf of the people of Israel for his steadfast stand as well as his projecting his vision to the region."
