President Biden honored the 2020 Women's National Basketball Association champion Seattle Storm at the White House Monday, celebrating not only their title, but their activism as well.

Biden noted their efforts on issues including police brutality against Black people, voter registration, and encouraging Americans to get vaccinated against Covid-19.

Three members of the team -- Sue Bird, Jewell Lloyd and Breanna Stewart -- were part of the U.S. team that won the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
