President Joe Biden said he was committed to closing the racial wealth gap at a campaign fundraiser hosted by prominent Black business leaders in New York on Monday, seeking to highlight the economic gains for Americans under his administration.

“Black Americans play a critical role in the economy, and disparities exist in every dimension in Black economic life, including representation, participation and pay. I’m committed to addressing these disparities,” Biden said Monday at an event at the St. Regis hotel in Midtown Manhattan.
