The webinar was held April 29, Biden s hundredth day as president, and one day after his first address before a joint session of Congress.

While President Joe Biden was exiting the stage from delivering his first address to Congress on Wednesday night, a Houston-area congressman stopped him for a quick exchange.
Newly-elected congressman Sheriff Troy Nehls, the former sheriff of Fort Bend County, offered to help the president with criminal justice reform during a short exchange.

“I’m a sheriff from Texas, the most diverse county in the entire country, Fort Bend County, and I want to help with the criminal justice reform. I want to be a part of it. It’s needed,” Nehls could be heard saying to the president.
