President Biden and his family celebrate Independence Day.

Joe and Naomi are very close. Naomi was named after Joe’s late daughter, who died in a tragic car crash alongside her mother, Neilia, in 1972. This accident occurred shortly after Biden was elected to serve in the U.S. Senate and has been a moment that he’s mentioned often as one of the toughest in his life.

When it comes to Naomi’s career, she has long been invested in politics and appears to have a promising future in that area. She’s joined her grandfather in international trips to places like New Zealand and China and has experienced firsthand some of the perks and pitfalls of having a long-term career in politics.
