Celebrating Hispanic Heritage with the Bidens
- 0 Comments
Last night was a celebratory night at the Vice President’s residence as the Bidens celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month. The doors were swung open to the U.S. Naval Observatory as the Mariachi Las Americas greeted guests as the sun set on a beautiful fall evening in our nation’s capital.

The Vice President and Dr. Jill Biden hosted a gathering of 150 Hispanic mayors, cabinet members, members of Congress and other Latino leaders from across the nation.
The Vice President quoted Cesar Chavez in his remarks by reminding us all that "when you have people together who believe in something very strongly – whether it’s religion or politics or unions – things happen." Last night’s celebration was a reminder that under the Obama-Biden Administration, good things are happening.
