President Biden Reveals Plans to Check in on Al Roker While Calling Into the Thanksgiving Day Parade

President Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden are feeling grateful this Thanksgiving.

On Thursday, the pair called into the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade — speaking with Today co-host Dylan Dreyer — to share their good wishes to Americans, especially first responders and Al Roker.

"I want to say thanks to the firefighters, the police officers, first responders. They never take a break," the president said. "And by the way, we're gonna be talking to some of our troops later today, both here and abroad."

He added they would be "spending some time on the island thanking those first responders here." The Bidens, who traditionally spend Thanksgiving on Nantucket, will have a family dinner and walk on the beach, Dr. Biden said during the call.
