Joe Biden: “These bills are not about left versus right or moderate versus progressive or anything that pits Americans against one…”

On the recordOctober 4, 2021
These bills are not about left versus right or moderate versus progressive or anything that pits Americans against one another. These bills are about competitiveness versus complacency. They`re about opportunity versus decay. They`re about leading the world or continuing to let the world pass us by, which is literally happening. To support these investments is to create a rising America. America is moving. To oppose these investments is to be complicit police in America`s decline.
