The Biden and DeSantis administrations frequently clash over policy. But the two camps put aside their differences on Friday even as back in Washington, DC, the Supreme Court issued a controversial decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Biden did not mention the decision during her remarks, which took place just minutes after the Supreme Court's opinion was released to the public.
Biden instead focused on the people who helped and supported the families who were mourning in Surfside.
"We honor the light you found in each other, a fellowship you never wanted to be part of but draw strength from just the same," she said. "If there is something strong enough to help us carry this burden of grief forward, something able to break its gravitational pull, it's love."
