WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Mark Pocan (WI-02) released the following statement after President Joseph R. Biden’s inauguration as the 46th President of the United States:
“Today marks a hitoric day for our nation and its future. After four years of corruption, bigotry, chaos and crisis, we have a chance to build our country back to better serve all Americans who have been left behind for far too long. I am confident that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are ready to progress our country through crisis and by reminding us of the humanity behind the 400,000 who have lost their lives to COVID-19 in America and the millions who are still unemployed, hungry or unhoused. We cannot simply ignore our problems or divisions but must work together through them—through accountability and by implementing sweeping solutions to our monumental problems. The American people are ready to move forward with President Biden and forward to an America that we have only yet dreamed of. Forward, because our nation demands and deserves it.”
