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.
