After over 50 years of public service, I decided it's time for a new generation to take our nation forward.

My fellow leaders, today is the fourth time I’ve had the great honor of speaking to this assembly as president of the United States. It will be my last.
[snip]
This summer, I faced a decision whether to seek a second term as president. It was a difficult decision. Being president has been the honor of my life. There is so much more I want to get done. But as much as I love the job, I love my country more. I decided, after 50 years of public service, it’s time for a new generation of leadership to take my nation forward.
My fellow leaders, let us never forget, some things are more important than staying in power. It’s your people — (applause) — it’s your people that matter the most.

The future will be won by those who unleash the full potential of their people.
— President Biden (@POTUS) September 24, 2024
To breathe free.
To think freely.
To innovate.
To educate.
To live and love openly, without fear.
That is the soul of democracy.
It does not belong to any one country.
Never forget, we are here to serve the people, not the other way around. Because the future will be — the future will be won by those who unleash the full potential of their people to breathe free, to think freely, to innovate, to educate, to live and love openly without fear.
That’s the soul of democracy. It does not belong to any one country.

Even as we navigate so much change, one thing must not change. We must never forget who we are here to represent.

They're the first words of our Constitution – the very idea of America – and inspired the opening words of the UN Charter:

Let me close with this. Even as we navigate so much change, one thing must not change: We must never forget who we’re here to represent.
“We the People.” These are the first words of our Constitution, the very idea of America. And they inspired the opening words of the U.N. Charter.

When Kamala and I took office, we inherited the climate in crisis, one threat every nation faces.
— President Biden (@POTUS) September 25, 2024
There was no plan in place – so we got to work.
And today, one $369 billion investment in climate later, we're ready to lead the world into the clean energy future. pic.twitter.com/q3CMy2mBq9
Rather than a climate conversation that focuses on doing less, Kamala and I pursued a climate policy focused on building our economic capacity.
— President Biden (@POTUS) September 25, 2024
Together, we’ve proven that a strong middle class and thriving manufacturing are key to winning on climate at home and abroad.

It's the power of “We the People” – in our country and every country – that makes me more optimistic than I've ever been about the future since I was first elected to the Senate in 1972.

It’s remarkable, the power of “We the People,” that makes me more optimistic about the future than I’ve ever been since I was first elected to the United States Senate in 1972.
