Let me be clear: That doesn’t mean everyone’s going to have that shot immediately, but it means you’ll be able to get in line beginning May 1.

I just want the truth. The truth. Just tell me the truth.

Finding light in the darkness is a very American thing to do. In fact, it may be the most American thing we do.

A year filled with the loss of life — and the loss of living for all of us.

My fellow Americans, you’re owed nothing less than the truth.

We`re seizing this moment, and history, I believe, will record we faced and overcame one of the toughest and darkest periods in this nation`s history, the darkest we`ve ever known.

If we all do our part, by the Fourth of July, we might be able to celebrate Independence Day together.

Barack was so modest, he didn`t want to take, as he said, a victory lap. I kept saying, tell people what we did. He said: 'We don`t have time. I`m not going to take a victory lap.' And we paid a price for it, ironically, for that humility…

It`s never, ever, a good bet to bet against the American people. America is coming back.

I will direct all states and territories to make all adults eligible for the vaccine no later than May 1st.

Today I signed into law the American Rescue Plan, an historic piece of legislation that delivers immediate relief to millions of people.

With the passage of the American Rescue Plan, and I thank again the House and Senate for passing it, and my announcement last month of a plan to vaccinate teachers and school staff including bus drivers, we can accelerate massive…

This bill centers the poor.

It sounds like hyperbole, but I mean it, a war footing.

I need your help. I need your help. I need your help. I need you to get vaccinated when it is your turn, and you have the opportunity to do it.

When I took office 50 days ago, only 8 percent of Americans after months, only 8 percent of those over the age of 65 had gotten their first vaccination. Today, that number is 65 percent.

America is leading this, right? We are vaccinating more people than anywhere in the world. We`re no longer leading in deaths. We`re leading in vaccinations.

The coming weeks and months, I’ll be traveling along with the First Lady, the Vice President, the second gentlemen, members of my Cabinet to speak directly to you to tell you the truth about how the American rescue plan meets the moment…

This historic legislation is about rebuilding the backbone of this country and giving people in this nation, working people, middle class folks, people who built the country a fighting chance. That`s what the essence of it is.

We need to get everybody vaccinated. All adults eligible will be vaccinated by the end of next month.

If we do all this, if we do our part, if we do this together, by July the 4th, there’s a good chance you, your families and friends, will be able to get together in your backyard or in your neighborhood and have a cookout or a barbecue and…

The only way to get our lives back, to get our economy back on track is to beat the virus.

We need to remember the government isn’t some foreign force in a distant capital. No, it’s us, all of us, we the people.

I will direct all states, tribes, and territories to make all adults people 18 and over eligible to be vaccinated no later than May 1.

I see a president whose most singular capacity is his capacity to be influenced, a desire to be pushed, a desire to meet this moment potentially.
