Why is Biden speaking at the LBJ Presidential Library?

The White House-sponsored event will commemorate then-President Lyndon Johnson's signing of the Civil Rights Act on July 2, 1964. It will be Biden's first trip to Texas' capital city since before his election in 2020.

Mark Updegrove, president and CEO of the LBJ Foundation and a presidential historian, said the library is honored to host Biden for the keynote address.

“It is fitting that he returns to the Library to mark this milestone as our 46th President whose administration is committed to pursuing a ‘comprehensive approach to advancing racial equity for all,’ ” Updegrove said in a news release.

Biden exits 2024 presidential race, endorses VP Kamala Harris

Biden's days as the president are numbered, he revealed in a shocking announcement July 21. He ended his reelection campaign as fellow Democrats called for him to step down, beginning with U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin. Concerns about the incumbent's fitness for another term were raised after a disastrous debate performance last month against former President Donald Trump.

Soon after announcing his plan, Biden officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the Democratic presidential nomination. The current president broke the news while isolating at his Rehoboth, Del., vacation home as he recuperated from COVID-19.

There is a certain poignancy in Biden’s appearance at the presidential library and museum of Lyndon Johnson, the 36th U.S. president, after his decision to step aside from seeking a second term.

Johnson, a former vice president and Senate majority leader from Texas, was the last incumbent president to forgo reelection to the White House. Johnson decided to step aside in 1968 under pressure from protests against the Vietnam War. Doggett noted the similarities in the two presidents' actions shortly after Biden's announcement.

"When I respectfully called for President Biden to step aside almost three weeks ago, I recognized that this would be a painful and difficult decision, not unlike that faced long ago under different circumstances by President Lyndon B. Johnson," Doggett said. "Today’s courageous action caps decades of selfless service and opens the door to a convention that can build on our progress and prevent a takeover of our country by Trump and his gang."
