This was reported by NBC News and the Associated Press on Wednesday, November 6.

The White House said that the date of the meeting will be agreed upon "in the near future." In addition, Biden spoke with Vice President Harris to congratulate her on the election campaign.
“As Vice President, Harris will be responsible for certifying the election in January, as then-Vice President Mike Pence did in 2020, when Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in anger over his loss. She also made it clear that she hopes he will be a President for all Americans," says the memorandum of the campaign headquarters.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung confirmed the phone conversation between Trump and Harris, saying that Harris congratulated Trump "on his historic victory." For his part, the President-elect praised Vice President Harris "for her strength, professionalism and perseverance throughout the campaign, and the two leaders agreed with the importance of unifying the country," Cheung said.
