Today, Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries released the following statement:

The House Democratic Caucus and our nation are praying for President Joe Biden and his family as he battles this challenging medical diagnosis. Over the years, the Biden family has confronted unimaginable adversity with grace and steadfast perseverance. We stand with President Biden as he confronts this moment with the same courage and resilience he has shown throughout his life.

In Isaiah 40:31, the scripture tells us, “they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.” President Joe Biden is a man of intellect, dignity, compassion, great accomplishment and faith. May the Lord bless and watch over him and his family at this time.
