President Biden Raises Over Million At Fundraiser Event

U.S. President Biden delivers remarks on healthcare coverage and the economy, in Washington

President Biden recently attended a high-profile fundraiser in New York City alongside former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. The star-studded event, held at Radio City Music Hall in Manhattan, aimed to raise over $25 million for Biden's re-election campaign. With more than 5,000 attendees, the sold-out gala drew significant attention.

Guests were required to pay a minimum of $250 to attend the fundraiser, with the option to pay up to $500,000 for a more exclusive reception. For $100,000, attendees could have a photo opportunity with all three presidents, captured by renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz. The event featured a moderated discussion led by Stephen Colbert, host of 'The Late Show,' with Biden and the two former presidents in front of the large audience.

Additionally, a smaller virtual event with Biden, Clinton, and Obama was available for $25 per entry. The evening was further enriched by performances from acclaimed musicians such as Queen Latifah, Lizzo, Ben Platt, Cynthia Erivo, and Lea Michele.
