President Joe Biden criticized President-elect Donald Trump’s push to eliminate birthright citizenship, calling it "awful," while simultaneously signing a major bill to expand Social Security benefits for public retirees.
The president also reaffirmed concerns about Trump’s actions following the 2020 election, particularly as the anniversary of the January 6 Capitol attack approaches. Biden described Trump’s behavior as a “genuine threat to democracy.”
In a landmark move, Biden signed legislation expanding Social Security benefits for public servants, including retired police officers and firefighters. This marks the first significant adjustment to Social Security in 20 years, reversing an old policy that capped benefits for certain pensioners, such as postal workers. The White House lauded the measure as a step toward fairness for retirees.
