Biden’s speech will be the most extended remarks from the president on the compromise. He largely remained quiet publicly during negotiations
President Joe Biden planned to discuss the contentious, just-passed budget deal in a speech to the nation Friday night, ready to sign the agreement averting the country’s first-ever government default, which would have sent shock waves through the U.S. and global economies.
“No one gets everything they want in a negotiation, but make no mistake: This bipartisan agreement is a big win for our economy and the American people,” Biden said in a statement on Thursday. “There is a gravity, as you all can imagine, of this moment,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Friday, on why Biden was using the occasion to deliver his first address to the nation from behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office. “He just wanted to make sure that the American people understood how important it was to get this done, how important it was to do this in a bipartisan way.”
