I could weep thinking that if this little girl knew that one day, everything that happened to her, and her healing, would help others find their own path. What I know for sure is that everything that has happened to you was also happening for you.
I see enormous pain in this country. A lot of folks are out of work. A lot of folks are going hungry, staring at the ceiling at night wondering, “What am I going to do tomorrow?” That’s why I’m urging Congress to pass the American Rescue Plan and deliver much-needed relief.
There is no time to waste when it comes to tackling the crises we face. That's why today, I am heading to the Oval Office to get right to work delivering bold action and immediate relief for American families.
We not only have an economic imperative to act now, we have a moral obligation.
In this pandemic, in America, we cannot let people go hungry. We cannot let people get evicted. We cannot watch nurses and educators lose their jobs.
We must act.
