9:38 pm
my plan would cut the cost for most family parents, including millions of women left the workforce during the pandemic because they couldn't afford child care to be able to get back to work generating economic growth. but my plan doesn't stop there. it also includes home and long term care, more affordable housing, pre k for 3 and 4 year old. all these lower foster families under my plan, nobody me say this again. nobody earning less than 400000 dollar year. we're paying a penny in new taxes. not a single penny may be home. my guess is that we took a secret ballot in this floor that we'd all agree that the present tax system
9:39 pm
a fair we have to fix it. i'm not looking to punish anybody. let's make corporations the wealthy american start paying their fair share for last year. last year my chris jones and tom carper and my distinguished congresswoman. we come from the land corporate america for more corporations, incorporated, american and every other state and america combined. i still won 36 years in a row. the point is even they understand that should pay just a fair share. last year, 55 of the fortune $500.00 companies earned $40000000000.00 in profit and paid 0 in federal taxes. hello. it's not fair. that's why i propose to 50 percent,

we all agree. thank you. by the end of this year, the depths will be down to less than half of what it was before i took office. the only president ever to cut the deficit by more than one trillion dollars in a single year. lauren, your cost also meant demanding more competition. i'm a capitalist, but capitalism of our competition is not capitalism. capitalism, without competition is exploitation drives up profit corporations that to compete their profits go up and your prices go up and they don't have to compete. small businesses and family farmers and ranchers, i need not tell some of my republican french in those states. guess what? you got for basic meat packing facilities. that's it. you play with them, you don't get to play at all. and you pay a hell of a lot more, a hell of
9:43 pm

9:45 pm
frustrated and exhausted. that doesn't even count the close to 1000000 people who sit as a dining room table or a kitchen table and looking at an empty chair because i lost somebody. but i also know this because of the progress we've made because of your resilience and the tools that we have been provided by this congress. tonight, i can say we're moving forward safely back to a no norm, more normal routines. we've reached a new moment in the fight against coven 19, where severe cases are down on level not seen since july of last year. just a few days ago in the center for disease control and prevention issued a new mass guidelines are no guidelines. most americans and most of the country can now go mass creed and based on projections, based on projections,
9:46 pm
more of the country will reach a point across that point across the next couple of weeks. and thanks to the progress we've made in the past year coven, 1000 no longer need control our lives. i know some are talking about living with coven 90. but tonight i say, that we never will just accept living with coven 90. will continue to combat the virus as we do other diseases. and because this virus mutates and spreads, we have to stay on guard. here are for common sense steps as we move forward safely in my view. first, stay protected with vaccines and treatments. we know incredibly effective vaccines are if you're vaccinated and boosted, you have the highest degree of protection. will never give up and vaccinate more americans. now, i know parents have kids under 5 are eager to see their vaccines authorized for the children. scientists are working hard to get that done and will be ready with plenty of axes if and when they do. we're all ready. we are also ready with and i
9:47 pm
viral treatments. if you get coven 19, the pfizer pill reduces your chances, venting up in the hospital by 90 percent. i've ordered more pills than anyone in the world has. pfizer is working overtime to get us some 1000000 toes this month. and more than double that next month. and now are launching the test to treat initiative. so people can get tested at a pharmacy and if they prove positive, received the anti virus pills on the spot at no cost. in no compromise there have some other mobility. we have treatments and free, high quality mass, relieving no and behind her, ignoring anyone's needs. as we move forward on testing,
9:48 pm
we made hundreds of millions of test available, and you can order them for free to your doorstep. and we've already ordered free test, jordy ordered free test. tonight. i'm announcing you can order another group of test covered. go to coven test, dot gov starting next week, and you can get more test. second, we must prepare for new variance. over the past, we've gotten much better detecting new variance if necessary, will be able to develop new vaccines than a 100 days, instead of maybe months or years. and if congress presides the funds we need, we'll have new stockpiles of test mass pills ready if needed. i can't promise in very it won't come, but i can't, i can't promise you will do everything within our power to be ready. if it does. first get in the shut down the schools. businesses were the tools we need is time from erica to get
9:49 pm

9:50 pm
going to send a request to congress. the vast majority of americans had use these tools my want again. we may need them again. so i expect congress. i hope you'll pass that quickly. force will continue vaccinating the world. we sent 475000000 vaccine doses to a 112 countries. more than any nation on earth. we will start with you can go to law high enough to keep out. in a vaccine, the vaccine can stop the spread of these diseases. you know, we've lost so much in coven 90 time with one another. the worst of all, much loss of life. but use this moment to reset. so stop located cohen as a partisan dividing line. see it for what it is,

9:53 pm
counties can use to hire more police invest in more proven strategy. like food status and community violence interruption, trusted messengers breaking the cycle of violence and trauma. giving young people some hope, we should all agree. the answer is not to define the police is to fund the police with resources and free resources in training and need to protect our community. i asked democrats and republicans alike to pass my budget and keep our neighborhood
