Jill Biden, First Lady, will host a Veterans Day Breakfast at the White House. She will announce new support for children living with veterans and wounded service personnel.

Hidden Helpers Coalition is an initiative that aims to support young people who are caregivers.

Biden will be joined by Vice President Kamala Harris, her husband Douglas Emhoff, after the Friday breakfast at Arlington National Cemetery.

In a video message, President Joe Biden stated that “Our veterans have defended democracy, protected our posterity and carried the burden of war on our behalf since our nation’s foundation.” Many still bear the invisible and physical scars from their service.

Be an Ambassador for Freedom We’re seeing history repeat itself once again where Jews are being chased into hiding like they were upon leaving Egypt. So, it’s fitting that in this Passover celebration, we unite to fight back against the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel left seeking to harm us. Will you be an Ambassador for Freedom and help the Coalition for Jewish Values fight back against those wishing harm on Bible-believing Americans? 1776 Coalition Sponsored

The Democratic president released this video because he traveled to Egypt on Thursday night, where he attended an annual United Nations conference about climate change. After that, he will travel to Cambodia and Indonesia before returning to Washington to attend his granddaughter’s wedding next weekend.

This marks the first Veterans Day since Biden signed legislation to expand health care for service personnel who were exposed in Iraq or Afghanistan to burn pits or chemicals used in past conflicts.

According to the Biden administration, more than 137,000 toxic exposure claims have been filed. In an effort to detect any health complications, the Department of Veterans Affairs began asking veterans about toxic exposure earlier in this week.

Biden made the legislation, also known as PACT Act, a priority after Beau Biden, his eldest son, died from brain cancer while serving in Iraq near a burn pit.
