Joe Biden Addresses Congress, Is Swamped By Kamala Harris And Nancy Pelosi, Making History

WORLD Team Latestly|

President Joe Biden triumphantly declared on April 28 that the United States is "on the move again" in a rousing speech to Congress, calling for trillions of dollars to rebuild the post-Covid-19 US middle class and give new life to "forgotten" workers. Lauding the success of mass vaccination against Covid-19, Biden told Congress and the nation on primetime television that "in America, we always get up”. "America is ready for takeoff," he said. Biden, who was celebrating the eve of his 100th day in office, called the vaccine rollout one of "the greatest logistical achievements" in the nation's history. But he quickly pivoted to insisting that this national effort must now focus on rebuilding the economy and fighting inequality with "the largest jobs plan since World War II”. And when US President Joe Biden delivered his debut speech to a joint session of Congress, history was made behind him, with two powerful women taking their places on the rostrum for the first time. "Madam Speaker. Madam Vice President," Biden said proudly, turning to the women and clapping as he began his address.
