President of the United States, Joseph R Biden Jr to address joint sitting of the Houses of the Oireachtas

5 Apr 2023, 18:51

On invitation from the Ceann Comhairle of Dáil Éireann, Seán Ó Fearghaíl TD, and the Cathoirleach of Seanad Éireann, Senator Jerry Buttimer, the President of the United States, Joseph R Biden Jr will address a Joint Sitting of the Houses of the Oireachtas on Thursday, 13 April as part of his visit to Ireland. 

Given the deep, historic ties between Ireland and the United States of America, both the Ceann Comhairle and the Cathaoirleach are very much looking forward to welcoming the President to Leinster House.

President Biden will become the fourth President of the United States to address the Oireachtas, following President John F Kennedy on 28 June 1963, President Ronald Reagan on 4 June 1984 and President Bill Clinton on 1 December 1995.

The address, which will take place in the Dáil chamber on Thursday, 13 April will be broadcast live on Oireachtas social channels and on Oireachtas TV.

Further details on the Address will issue in due course.
