Biden sends ‘Happy Hanukkah’ wishes, White House lights first candle
The White House lit candles on the first night of Hanukkah tonight, the Jewish festival of lights.
US President Joe Biden posted a photo of the lit menorah at the White House.
“The story of Hanukkah teaches us that even a little bit of light, wherever it is found, can dispel the darkness and illuminate a path forward. From our family to yours, Jill and I wish you and your loved ones a Chanukah Sameach, a Happy Hanukkah!” the president wrote on X.
