President Biden is taking his agenda on the road today. He'll visit Wisconsin in his first stop after last night's State of the Union address. He talked about the Russian attack on Ukraine, detailed a plan to fight inflation, and unveiled how the nation is moving forward on the pandemic. Meantime, at least one Congressman from the state liked the President's agenda.
Congressman Richard Neal liked what he heard.
“Tonight, President Biden spoke directly to the American people, acknowledging their pain and reinforcing the ways our nation is on the path to being stronger than ever. Children are back in school and their parents are back at work. Millions of new jobs have been created, hundreds of millions of people are vaccinated, and normalcy is returning. Americans elected President Biden to lead this kind of progress, and he and congressional Democrats profoundly delivered with American Rescue Plan, the bipartisan infrastructure law, and the recovery those measures have spurred.
“We continue to focus on lowering costs and putting money back into the pockets of those who need it most. From strengthening our supply chains to achieving universal paid family and medical leave, the Ways and Means Committee will keep pushing to support workers and supercharge our ongoing economic rebound."
While most Democrats say the President hit a home run with the address, many Republicans weren't so praising, saying the President has fallen short so far on his domestic agenda.
