Watch Live: Biden Holds 1st Press Conference As President

President Biden is holding his first news conference on Thursday and is expected to field questions on a wide range of topics, from the coronavirus to the influx of migrants at the border and his upcoming infrastructure effort.

Two months into office, President Biden will give his first news conference as president on Thursday.

In recent days, Biden and other members of the first families have toured the country, touting his newly signed $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan.

But amid that tour, details came out about his potentially massive infrastructure plan, the Biden administration faced continued questions about southern U.S. border crossings, and two mass shootings refocused the nation's attention on guns.

And there are other big items on Biden's increasingly full plate, from the coronavirus pandemic and the economy to fraught relations with China.
