2:10Now PlayingAfter they were sworn in, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris accepted gifts from key members of the U.S House and U.S. Senate.
The gifts included a painting in the Smithsonian's collection by African American painter Robert Seldon Duncanson, two custom made crystal vases by Lenox, two America flags that flew over Wednesday's inauguration, and two framed photographs of Biden and Harris being sworn in.
Biden was sworn in as the 46th president and summoned American resilience to confront a historic confluence of crises and urging people to come together to end an “uncivil war” in a nation deeply divided after four tumultuous years
The quadrennial ceremony unfolded within a circle of security forces evocative of a war zone and devoid of crowds because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Instead, Biden gazed out over 200,000 American flags planted on the National Mall to symbolize those who could not attend in person.
Biden is eager to go big early, with an ambitious first 100 days that includes a push to speed up the distribution of COVID-19 vaccinations to anxious Americans and pass a $1.9 trillion virus relief package.
On Day One, he is planning a series of executive actions to roll back Trump administration initiatives and also planned to send an immigration proposal to Capitol Hill that would create an eight-year path to citizenship for immigrants living in the country illegally.
