#shorts On 1/20/2023, Joe Biden said, “And I remember Barack Obama turned to me one day and said — not — not a joke — “Joe, fix Detroit.” I said, “Oh, no problem.” (Laughter.) “No problem.” Well, I got to know Detroit. I found out things the mayor taught me was — guess what? — that something was as close to 70 percent of the people in this — 60 percent of the people in the city who were high school educated, had jobs — they were outside the city. And they couldn’t get there. They didn’t have — 60 percent of them didn’t have cars. So, we ended up getting — what? — 20 new buses, was it, initially? I mean, you know, just practical things to determine what are the things that both allow neighborhoods”
Biden celebrated two years in office by welcoming mayors who are attending the US Conference of Mayors Winter Meeting to the White House. Biden delivered remarks in the East Room to celebrate his administration.
