                   WELCOMING THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. HALEY M. STEVENS

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, January 25, 2021

  Ms. STEVENS. Madam Speaker, I rise today in celebration of the newly 
inaugurated Biden Administration.
  I have every confidence that my friend, and a good man, President 
Joseph R. Biden, will serve as the head of state that this weighty 
moment deserves. With Vice President Kamala Harris by his side, America 
will heal, America will innovate, and America will lead.
  My partnership with President Biden began on the campaign trail in 
2008, and it continued to the U.S. Auto Rescue Task Force, where he 
showed every day his care for the needs of hardworking Michigan 
families and our manufacturing economy. I am ready to work alongside 
the Biden Administration and my colleagues in Congress to defeat the 
COVID-19 pandemic, get our economy back on track, and help Michiganders 
get back on their feet.
  I ask my colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives to join me 
in congratulating the new Administration and welcoming the first family 
to the White House.
  Now, we begin a new chapter in American history--one of innovative, 
collaborative, and forward-thinking leadership to strengthen our nation 
for generations to come.
  We will build a future for our children that is guided by truth and 
science, energized by the will of the people, and fortified by love for 
our resilient republic. May we be successful in this endeavor, and may 
we never lose faith in America's promise.
