Washington, November 10 

Vice President-elect Kamala Harris has mentioned that she and President-elect Joe Biden are prepared to jot down the “next chapter” in American historical past and from day one they might begin constructing an economic system that advantages the working households.

Tackling COVID-19 pandemic, financial restoration, racial equality and local weather change are the 4 prime priorities the Biden workforce listed on its web site on Sunday, a day after the Democrat leaders received the bitter and closely-fought November three presidential election – billed as probably the most divisive in current American historical past.

“Biden and I are prepared to jot down the subsequent chapter in our nation’s historical past,” Harris mentioned in a tweet on Monday.

“On day one, we’re going to get to work building an economy that works for working families,” she mentioned, itemizing out the priorities of the Biden-Harris administration.

As Biden’s vp, Harris, 56, will make historical past in myriad methods, turning into the primary lady – and the primary lady of color – to occupy the workplace.

According to the Economic Recovery of the Transition, President-elect Biden believes to his core that there is not any larger financial engine on the earth than the laborious work and ingenuity of the American individuals.

“Nobody has more respect for the working women and men who get up every day to build and sustain this country, or more confidence that they can meet the challenges we face. The Biden-Harris administration will rebuild the middle class — and this time make sure everyone comes along,” it mentioned.

In this time of disaster, Biden has a plan to create thousands and thousands of good-paying jobs, make it simpler for staff to organise unions and collectively discount, and to offer America’s working households the instruments, decisions, and freedom they should construct again higher, it mentioned.

“That starts with a real strategy to deal with the pandemic. We can’t solve the jobs crisis until we solve the public health crisis. Implementing Biden’s comprehensive strategy to get the pandemic under control and effectively reopen the economy — an approach that will both protect the health and safety of our people and boost economic activity — is one of the president-elect’s top priorities,” the transition mentioned.

“The Biden economic recovery plan for working families will build our economy back better. Whenever America has had its back against the wall, we have acted together to lay the foundation — through public investment and a strong social contract — for the American people to pull together and push forward,” it mentioned.
