The White House has broken with tradition and listed itself as the"Biden-Harris Administration" on its website rather than simply, the "Biden Administration."

"Thousands of people work in the West Wing, the East Wing, the Cabinet, and the Executive Office of the President. Learn more about the people who carry out the priorities of the Biden-Harris Administration", the White House administration tab reads.

The White House Twitter page also welcomes visitors with the words "Welcome to the Biden-Harris White House!".

This is a marked change from the previous two administrations run by President Donald Trump and President Barack Obama, which had only the leader's names listed on their main website or social media channels.

In the Obama White House, the names would occasionally appear together in media articles or occasional descriptions, but the Biden-Harris administration is the first to use them in an official title.

Per Fox News, the change comes after Biden has accidentally referred to his vice president as "President Harris" on more than one occasion during public addresses.

The website alteration comes after Biden and Harris celebrated Black excellence at the 2021 NAACP Image Awards over the weekend, per Entertainment Tonight.

Biden said: "Black culture is American culture. Black history is American history. And Black stories are essential to the ongoing story of America. Tonight's nominees, to all of you, thank you for also helping us see what America can be. And I am honored to introduce someone who has done just that. Our vice president of the United States Kamala Harris."

He then let Harris take the mic and she went onto explain how important the awards are.

"The NAACP Image Awards are about Black excellence in motion pictures and television, music and literature. And over the past year, we've seen so many actors and artists excel not just in their craft, but in their contributions to our community during this devastating pandemic," Harris saidd.

"And the NAACP has led the way, all the way, fighting for justice, ensuring the well-being of Black communities, providing grants to Black entrepreneurs and advocating for Black students. I thank you."
