President Joe Biden has been one of the most effective presidents of my lifetime.

From Rx drug costs to creating jobs, rebuilding our infrastructure and more, I’m so proud of all we did together to deliver for Georgia & our country.

Thank you, @POTUS.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

For me, the People’s House has always been about welcoming everyone.

America, thank you for trusting me with this sacred place. I’ve loved opening the doors to the Oval Office wider than ever these past four years.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Joe Biden’s presidency has been transformational. His time in office ends tomorrow, but the victories he’s won—to bring back jobs, stand up to big corporations, & build an economy that works for everyone—will continue to touch people’s lives. I am deeply grateful for his service.

[Governor Josh Green @GovJoshGreenMD]

As Governor of Hawai‘i, I extend my deepest gratitude to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris as they conclude their administration. Your unwavering support during the Maui wildfires was instrumental in our recovery.

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

President Biden has devoted his life to his country. Through extraordinary times, he has led with strength and with decency.

I wish him and his family nothing but the best. Thank you, Joe.

[Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

When President Biden leaves the Oval Office tomorrow, he will leave behind an extraordinary legacy.

Of accomplishing more in one term, than most presidents do no matter how long they serve.

[Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor]

President @JoeBiden has stood by California in our toughest moments over the past four years — right through to the end, as we battle and recover from the devastating fires in Los Angeles.

The Golden State is profoundly grateful for the Biden-Harris Administration’s dedication and the progress we’ve made together for millions of Californians.

Your service to our nation leaves a legacy that will not be forgotten.

[Ed O'Keefe @edokeefe]

BIDEN ISSUES MORE PARDONS & COMMUTATIONS: 5 pardons, 2 commutations.

"America is a country built on the promise of second chances. As President, I have used my clemency power to make that promise a reality by issuing more individual pardons and commutations than any other President in U.S. history." He adds that those granted relief today "have each made significant contributions to improving their communities."

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

President Biden just declared that the Equal Rights Amendment is now a valid part of the Constitution, and should be considered the law of the land.

This is an incredible moment for reproductive freedom, and a historic day for equality – especially with Americans facing the further degradation of reproductive freedom as the incoming administration takes power.

Now, women living in states with restrictions on their reproductive freedoms can – and should – file suits to overturn these unconstitutional laws that discriminate on the basis of sex. I know they will have ample support as they seek justice, and I promise to stand by their side in this fight.

At the US Conference of Mayors meeting in Washington, a group of about 40 Republican and Democratic mayors was asked just now to raise their hands if they had a project in their cities funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure law. All of them did.
