Every American, regardless of gender, race, income, sexual orientation, nationality, or zip code, should have access to affordable, high-quality health care.
Health care is a right for everybody, not a privilege reserved for the wealthy few.
President Biden will reverse the Trump Administration's rule that allows discrimination in health care based on gender identity, sexual orientation, and sex stereotyping. This unconstitutional rule, which was finalized this year, also reverts to a binary definition of sex as being either male or female.
The Trump Administration's rule eliminated many of the nondiscrimination provisions that the Obama Administration had finalized in 2016 in order to implement Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act. Under the Biden-Harris administration, the rules will be revised again and will end up restoring the broad non-discrimination protections that were implemented in 2016.

It's OK to Be White
It should be all employees, but Biden's plan would still be a step up.
Unfortunately, Biden is a pretty standard Moderate. So he's not going to be as left-wing as Fox wants him to be. But I'll definitely take a Moderate over a Fascist who wants to keep people poor and vulnerable.

Joe Biden knows that man-made climate change poses an existential threat, not just to our environment, but to our health, our communities, our security, and our economic well-being.
Joe Biden knows that man-made climate change also damages our communities with storms that wreak havoc.
Joe Biden knows that man-made climate change puts our national security at risk by leading to regional instability that will require U.S military-supported relief activities and could make areas more vulnerable to right-wing terror attacks.

Joe Biden knows there is no greater challenge tham man-made climate change facing our country and our world.
That’s why he is outlining a bold plan – a Clean Energy Revolution – to address this grave threat and lead the world in addressing the climate emergency.
Joe Biden believes the Green New Deal is a crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face.
It powerfully captures two basic truths, which are at the core of his plan:
(1) the United States urgently needs to embrace greater ambition on an epic scale to meet the scope of this challenge, and
(2) our environment and our economy are completely and totally connected.

The President does not have that authority. Neither does the federal government.
So...nothing.
So...nothing.
So...nothing.
The President can't instruct Congress to pass a constitutional amendment. Congress cannot pass a constitutional amendment. Only the States can do that. Only the States can change the Constitution.
So...suppression.
He does not have that authority. That is violation of the 1st amendment.
And he will be in violation of the Constitution of the United States to do so.
The order is not lawful.
Not lawful. See the 1st amendment.
The President doesn't have that authority.
So...nothing. Biden, of all people, caught in one scandal after another, is going to be in charge of ethics????
That will get nowhere. That requires a constitutional amendment. Only the States may amend the Constitution.

As president, Joe Biden will lead the world to address the climate emergency and lead through the power of example, by ensuring the U.S. achieves a 100% clean energy economy and net-zero emissions no later than 2050.
The Biden Plan will:
Ensure the U.S. achieves a 100% clean energy economy and reaches net-zero emissions no later than 2050.
On day one, President Biden will sign a series of new executive orders with unprecedented reach that go well beyond the Obama-Biden Administration platform and put us on the right track.
President Biden will demand that Congress enacts legislation in the first year of his presidency that:
1) establishes an enforcement mechanism that includes milestone targets no later than the end of his first term in 2025,
2) makes a historic investment in clean energy and climate research and innovation,
3) incentivizes the rapid deployment of clean energy innovations across the economy, especially in communities most impacted by climate change.

President Biden will build a stronger, more resilient America.
On day one, President Biden will make smart infrastructure investments to rebuild the nation and to ensure that our buildings, water, transportation, and energy infrastructure can withstand the impacts of climate change.
Every dollar spent toward rebuilding our roads, bridges, buildings, the electric grid, and our water infrastructure will be used to prevent, reduce, and withstand man-made climate change.
As our President, Joe Biden will use the convening power of government to boost climate resilience efforts by developing regional climate resilience plans, in partnership with local universities and national labs, for local access to the most relevant science, data, information, tools, and training.

President Biden will rally the rest of the world to meet the threat of man-made climate change.
Man-made climate change is a proven global challenge that requires decisive action from every country around the world.
Joe Biden knows how to stand with America’s allies, stand up to adversaries, and level with any world leader about what must be done.
As our president, Joe Biden will not only recommit the United States to the Paris Agreement on climate change, he will go much further than that.
He will lead an effort to get every major country to ramp up the ambition of their domestic climate targets.
He will make sure those commitments are transparent and enforceable, and stop countries from cheating by using America’s economic leverage and power of example.
He will fully integrate the reduction of man-made climate change into our foreign policy and national security strategies, as well as our approach to trade.

President Biden will stand up to abuse by polluters who disproportionately harm communities of color and low-income communities.
Vulnerable communities are disproportionately impacted by the man-made climate emergency and pollution.
The Biden-Harris Administration will take action against fossil fuel companies and other polluters who put profits over people and knowingly harm our environment and poison our communities’ air, land, and water, or conceal information regarding potential environmental and health risks.
The Biden plan will ensure that communities across the country will have access to pure, clean, safe drinking water, and he’ll make sure the development of solutions is an inclusive, community-driven process.

The Biden plan will make a historic investment in our clean energy future and environmental justice, paid for by rolling back the Trump tax cuts that enriched corporations at the expense of American jobs and the environment.
President Biden’s climate and environmental justice proposal will make a federal investment of $1.7 trillion over the next ten years, leveraging additional private sector and state and local investments to total to more than $5 trillion.
President Trump’s tax cut led to trillions in stock buybacks and created new incentives to shift profits abroad.
Joe Biden will invest in a Clean Energy Revolution that creates jobs here at home.
The Biden plan will be paid for by reversing the excesses of the Trump tax cuts for corporations and the rich, reducing incentives for tax havens, evasion, and outsourcing, ensuring corporations pay their fair share, closing other loopholes in our tax code that reward wealth, and ending subsidies for fossil fuels.

Joe Biden has long appreciated the enormity of climate change and has always believed that we have a moral and economic imperative to address it.
In 1986, he introduced one of the first-ever climate bills in Congress. Politifact recently called him a “climate change pioneer” and dubbed his early leadership “a watershed moment.”
As Chair of the Foreign Relations Committee, he organized several hearings on climate change and rallied support on a number of nonbinding resolutions on the issue, in an attempt to build momentum for action to address global climate change.
In 1998, he was a key champion for the Tropical Forest Conservation Act, which allowed the U.S. to reach agreements with foreign governments to conserve tropical forests in exchange for debt relief (commonly referred to as debt-for-nature swaps).
In 2006, Senator Biden took executives from BP and Chevron to task for the subsidies going to the oil industry.
As Vice President, he oversaw the Recovery Act, the largest single investment in clean energy in U.S. history.
The Obama-Biden Administration placed historic limits on carbon pollution, doubled fuel economy standards for cars and trucks, unleashed the potential of renewable, clean energy, and rallied the world to achieve the groundbreaking Paris Climate Accords.
Joe Biden also understands that the movement towards a cleaner future comes from all of us. At a recent speech at the United States Conference of Mayors, he applauded efforts cities and states have taken on their own as the federal government has been absent for the last three years.
