“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday to make sure President Biden talks about “the importance of education” specifically in Republican-controlled states like Florida and Texas during his State of the Union address.
“I have one thing I would like you to tell the president. We need him to talk about the importance of education in Florida and in Texas, and the need for him to stand up and say all American history involves people of color. Will you send that message to him for me?” Goldberg asked during their interview with Jean-Pierre.
Jean-Pierre said she would pass along the message and added that it was something he “absolutely believes in.”
“It’s something that we totally agree with you here at the White House. Thank you, Whoopi,” she said.
