it's projected to cut child poverty in new jersey by 36%. people across the country for better and for years to come so everyone here today especially governor murphy, and other dedicated officials here today, think of showing this was possible because when we make these investments, there can be no stopping america. we will own the future. this initiative is about betting on america come about believing in america, about believing in american people. you look at the history of the journey of this nation, what becomes clear is this, given half a chance, the american people have never let their country down. so let's get this done, let's move. we have the most talented workforce in the world, what are we doing? what in gods name are we doing? and by the way, you hear these numbers, 3.5 trillion or 1.75 trillion, we pay for it all. it doesn't increase the deficit one single sense. so let's get to work. let's put people to work. i lets once again reestablish america as the most advanced country in the world. god bless america and god bless our

that's not new jersey. so instead of forcing schools to cut back, we should be doing more to support the people who are educating our kids. instead of asking families to bear even more of a burden, we should be asking those who have been fortunate enough in this economy to be doing better than ever to pay their fair share of taxes. instead of spreading misinformation or disinformation about the last election, we should be trying to strengthen our democracy, encouraging people to vote. we are at a turning point right now, both here, in america, and around the world. there's a mood out there. we see it. there's a politics of meanless, division, conflict, of tribalism and cynicism, and, you know, we could go down that path, but i can tell you that's a path to ruin. the good news is there's another path, one where we pull together, one where we solve big problems together, one where we rebuild our society in a way that gives more and more people a better life. that's the choice we face, a choice that i believe

i visited new jersey after hurricane ida came through. the governor and several of you were with me. in manville we met people who had been put out of their homes by flooding, it was devastating. water marks over people's heads. they would show me where the water had gotten to. i told them that help is on the way. since then, fema processed assistance applications for nearly 30,000 new jerseyans and approved $150 million in repairs, replacement, rental assistance and other needs. between 2010 and 2020, this state has had 24 extreme weather events. 24. nationally, extreme weather, as i said, cost the taxpayers over $100 billion a year. it will make our levies stronger, power grids more durable, all to withstand the ferocity of extreme weather. with my build back better plan we'll address the root cause of ever-increasing weather and destruction. the climate crisis. we have a climate crisis. i've flown all over this nation this year in helicopters, going from lake mead -- you know, more land has been burned to the ground in the west, to the
