President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump will meet at 11 a.m. at the White House on Nov. 13 to discuss plans for the presidential transition, according to White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre in a Nov. 9 statement.

The press secretary’s announcement provides the first specifics of the meeting, which earlier <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/trump-accepts-bidens-white-house-invitation-for-transition-meeting-5755731">reporting indicates</a> will focus on the transfer of power between presidential administration. Jean-Pierre said additional details would be forthcoming. Biden first extended the invitation during a Nov. 6 phone call in which he congratulated Trump on his election victory.

The Trump campaign’s communications director Steven Cheung said after Biden’s phone call that Trump was looking forward to the meeting, which Cheung said was about ensuring a “smooth transition” between administrations.

Trump won the 2024 presidential election with 301 electoral college votes to Vice President Kamala Harris’s 226, with Arizona’s 11 electoral votes yet to be awarded.

Trump is also ahead in the popular votes by a margin of roughly 4 million votes.

Harris, who <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/harris-officially-concedes-to-trump-promises-peaceful-transition-of-power-5755556">conceded</a> the election on Nov. 6, said she would assist with the transition.

Trump told supporters on Nov. 6 in West Palm Beach, Florida, that his victory <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/trump-calls-election-result-massive-victory-for-democracy-and-freedom-5755199" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">would usher in</a> “the golden age of America,” has pledged to work to bring the country together.

As Trump’s transition team prepares to take over the White House, Americans can expect significant policy shifts across key areas, including the economy, foreign policy, immigration, tax reform, and health care.

The president-elect has pledged to end the war in Ukraine before Inauguration Day and launch a large-scale deportation campaign targeting illegal immigrants. Trump also aims to implement tax cuts, ramp up domestic energy production, and revive his deregulation agenda, promising to cut red tape and fast-track America’s economic recovery.

As the transition gets underway, there’s been an increased focus on Trump’s potential cabinet picks. On Nov. 7 he <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/trump-announces-susan-wiles-as-white-house-chief-of-staff-5756313">announced</a> that Susan Wiles, his 2024 presidential campaign manager, will serve as his  White House chief of staff.

Trump has also said he would give Elon Musk a role in his administration running a commission tasked with making government more efficient. Robert Kennedy Jr., who dropped out of the presidential campaign and endorsed Trump, is expected to assume a role related to public health policy.
