Joe Biden

We have never, ever, ever failed as a country when we have acted together.

I have never been more optimistic about America than I am this very day.

Let us be the nation that we know we can be. A nation united, a nation strengthened, a nation healed.

We need to address the challenges facing our immigration system and ensure that we have a fair and just system that upholds the values of our country and provides a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.

I believe that we need to work towards a more peaceful and stable future for the people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and that requires a commitment to supporting the Congolese government and promoting regional security.

All Americans qualified to serve should be able to do so.

I think that the United States has a responsibility to lead on the global stage and work towards a more peaceful and prosperous world.

Democracy holds the key to freedom, prosperity, peace, and dignity. . . . And, if we work together with our democratic partners, with strength and confidence, we will meet every challenge and outpace every challenger.

Democracy will and must prevail . but democracy doesn't happen by accident. We have to defend it, fight for it, strengthen it, renew it.

The Biden-Harris administration is fully committed to and supportive of PEPFAR.

Senator Biden insisted that the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) be maintained as an independent agency.

Senator Biden blocked an effort, proposed in the first budget submitted by President Clinton, to close Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL).

Senator Biden authored the legislation that led to the creation of a similar 'surrogate' radio service to broadcast to China and other countries in East Asia.

The administration committed to carefully reviewing U.S.-Cuba policy.

Diplomacy is back at the center of our foreign policy.

It is critical that the United States and Mexico work together to dismantle transnational criminal organizations.

Support for democracy and human rights will be at the core of our efforts through empowering the Cuban people.

We will lead not merely by the example of our power, but by the power of our example.

I have learned firsthand the need for close and constructive coordination with Congress.

In fact, in his recent address before the Munich Security Conference, he called the transatlantic relationship the cornerstone of all we hope to accomplish in the 21st century.

The Biden-Harris administration's Cuba policy will be governed by two principles.

Both the President and I believe we can turn the threat of climate change into an opportunity to boost our economy and reinvigorate old and new industries to create high-paying middle-class jobs across America.

Nobody making under 400,000 bucks would have their taxes raised, period.

Nobody making under 400,000 bucks, would have their taxes raised, period.

The United States is a nation that leads not only by the example of our power but by the power of our example.
