EXCERPT:
LANDRIEU: “Well, first of all, those feelings are really important, and they’re real. But to remind people that when President Biden took over, the country was in the midst, as you know, of Covid. They were in the midst of, as you now know, an insurrection, and an economic cataclysmic downfall. President Biden came to the rescue. He passed four of the biggest domestic pieces of legislation that were seen in our country’s history. He’s created 15 million jobs, the lowest unemployment rate that we’ve seen in the last 50 years. But the problem is that all of those benefits are not flowing down to everybody as quickly as possible. And that’s why Joe Biden, every day, is fighting to save people money by fighting for lower prescription drug costs, fighting for health care, fighting to make sure people have access to housing, fighting to make sure big oil and all of the big companies are not taking profits when they’re not supposed to, and making sure that everybody has a better chance to support their families.”
