This law -- this law that I`m about to sign finally deliver on a promise that Washington has made for decades to the American people.
Joe Biden
The Public Record
Joe Biden is the 46th President of the United States, having taken office on January 20, 2021. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously served as Vice President under Barack Obama from 2009 to 2017. Biden has focused on various key issues during his presidency, including economic recovery, healthcare, and climate change. His administration has emphasized 'Bidenomics,' which aims to address inflation and promote economic growth.
Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, 13 million people are going to continue, continue to save an average of $800 a year on health insurance.
Too often, we confuse noise with substance. Too often, we confuse setbacks with defeat.
The Inflation Reduction Act does so many things that, for so many years, so many of us have fought to make happen.
In this historic moment, Democrats sided with the American people, and every single Republican in the Congress sided with the special interests in this vote.
And somehow all of that is managed to pass in a 50/50 Senate that includes folks like these, Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Biden, who get up and say no in the morning before they do anything else just because it makes them feel good.
It also closes tax loopholes and establishes a 15 percent minimum tax for corporations that make over a billion dollars a year.
The bill also caps out of pocket medication costs for seniors who are on Medicare.
This is a bill that empowers the administration to negotiate drug prices using the Medicare program.
That was all on Tuesday. Then on Wednesday, he signed another huge bill to provide health coverage for up to 3 1/2 million veterans exposed to toxic burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan.
In April, following the historic nomination that he made, he got the first ever African American woman confirmed to the United States Supreme Court.
The nation’s first major legislation on climate and the biggest and most important legislation on prescription drug costs in decades.
The landmark bill will cut the costs of prescription drugs, make historic investments in clean energy, and finally make our tax code more fair.
Big win for Joe Biden today in the final passage of the Inflation Reduction Act.
If our society, if our system does not seem to be working for everyone’s benefit, we are in danger of losing our democracy.
I think the reason why Biden hasn’t moved on this is partly because, on the campaign trail, he made this big promise about how he was going to keep the independence of inspectors general.
And Jon, I want to thank you again. I wanted to come up and hang out in the Capitol steps into the Secret Service said I`d be a pain in the neck would let me do it. So at least we did a little video on there but what you`ve done Jon…
This is the most significant law our nation has ever passed to help millions of veterans who are exposed to toxic substances during the military services. You know Secretary McDonough can tell you I was going to get this done come hell or…
Our message to those women and men is clear. There is a home for you in the United States, if you so choose, and we will stand with you just as you stood with us.
On the campaign trail, he made this big promise about how he was going to keep the independence of inspectors general.
Decades from now, people look back at this week, at all we`ve passed and all we moved on, that we met a moment at this inflection point in history. Not only we bet on ourselves, believed in ourselves, and we captured a story, the spirit…
I hope to be signing the Inflation Reduction Act into law that’s going to lowering the cost of health care and energy and make historic investments to tackle climate crisis.
This is the most significant law our nation has ever passed to help millions of veterans who are exposed to toxic substances during their military services.
