ARP also spurred the largest investments in fighting crime, preventing violence, and investing in public safety in history. Thanks to this funding to help states, cities, towns, and counties across the country, 2023 saw one of the lowest rates of violent crime in over 50 years. The murder rate saw its sharpest decrease in history.</p> <p> ARP has also led to the largest small business boom in history, with a record 19 million new business applications over the past three years - 55% higher than the year before the pandemic. ARP’s Child Care Stabilization program was critical in keeping child care centers open.

In his Administration’s first year, the federal government provided more than $450 billion in emergency relief to more than 6 million small businesses, helping them keep their doors open during the pandemic. Under President Biden, the federal government awarded a record $178.6 billion in contracting opportunities to small businesses, including $76.2 billion to small, disadvantaged businesses Traditionally underserved small businesses are growing at near-historic rates, with Black business ownership growing at the fastest pace in 30 years and Latino business ownership growing at the fastest pace in over a decade. The Small Business Administration has doubled the number of small dollar loans and loans to Latino and women-owned small businesses and tripled the number of loans to Black-owned small businesses since President Biden took office. In 2023, federal contracting dollars to women-owned small businesses hit the highest dollar amount ever awarded. The Biden-Harris Administration is also leveraging tens of billions of public and private dollars in loans and equity investments through the American Rescue Plan’s State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI). Through programs like SSBCI, MBDA’s Capital Readiness Program, and SBA’s Community Navigators program, President Biden has prioritized hands-on technical assistance support to small businesses, helping countless businesses access loans, obtain their business license, file their taxes, and navigate zoning and permitting processes.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="3" data-column="3" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Most Pro-Labor President in History </h3> <p>Thanks to President Biden’s work to fight for overtime pay, protect millions of pensions, and stand in solidarity with workers as they went on strike, the Biden-Harris Administration has been cemented as the most pro-labor administration in history.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p> President Biden and Vice President Harris believe that a hard day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay. That is why the Department of Labor issued a rule raising pay for 4 million workers by increasing who is eligible for overtime compensation when they work more than 40 hours per week. On July 1, 2024, overtime protections were extended to 1 million workers making less than $43,888 per year ($844 per week), and next year protections will be extended to another 3 million workers making less than $58,656 ($1,128 per week).</p> <p> The middle class built America, and unions built the middle class. President Biden is proud to be the most pro-worker, pro-union president in American history. The President and Vice President have stood by workers as they organized, bargained collectively, and went on strike for higher pay, better benefits, and safer workplaces. In September 2023, during the United Auto Workers’ historic Stand Up Strike, President Biden made history by becoming the first president to walk a picket line. The UAW’s strike won historic wage increases and helped ensure that electric vehicles would be manufactured in America by union workers.</p> <p> President Biden signed into law the Butch Lewis Act – the most significant law for union retirement security in over 50 years. Thanks to this legislation, the Biden-Harris Administration rescued and protected roughly 2 million workers’ pensions, ensuring they remained solvent. Workers who saved their entire careers for their pensions deserve a strong, dignified retirement, and this rescue of multiemployer pension plans protects their hard-earned investments.</p> <p> Moreover, President Biden has taken key steps to ensure federal dollars support good union jobs. For example, the President issued an Executive Order to require Project Labor Agreements on federal construction projects valued at or above $35 million and his Good Jobs Executive Order calls on agencies to embed high wages and labor standards into federal grant programs. This means that projects funded by the Administration’s Investing in America agenda will move faster and without delays, get taxpayers a better deal and provide workers the security and peace of mind that comes with collectively bargained wages and benefits.</p> <p> Under the Biden-Harris Administration, prime-age women’s labor force participation is the highest it has ever been, and the gender pay gap has narrowed. Prime-age women’s labor force participation is the highest it has ever been. President Biden is also working to advance pay equity for federal employees and contractors and ensuring that workplaces are free from discrimination.

The Inflation Reduction Act’s corporate minimum tax ensures that billion-dollar corporations pay at least 15% of their income in taxes. In response to the surge in corporate stock buybacks after the Trump tax cuts, the Biden-Harris Administration enacted a surcharge on corporate stock buybacks to encourage businesses to invest in growth and productivity as opposed to funneling tax-preferred profits to wealthy and foreign shareholders.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration reversed the chronic underfunding of the IRS, giving the agency the tools it needed to improve taxpayers’ experience and make wealthy and corporate tax cheats pay the taxes they owe. This includes slashing call wait times from 28 minutes to 3 and launching a Direct File program – so Americans in states across the country could file their taxes easily, online, and for free directly with the IRS. The IRS has also used this funding to collect $1.3 billion in unpaid taxes from wealthy tax cheats and crack down on high-end tax evasion. In total, the IRS is projected to collect hundreds of billions of dollars in additional revenue over the next decade thanks to this investment.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="5" data-column="1" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Lowering Costs, Tackling Junk Fees, and Promoting Competition </h3> <p>President Biden knows that prices are too high and too many families are being squeezed by the cost of living.

The Administration is also lowering utility bills by introducing tax credits up to $3,200 and direct consumer rebates of up to $14,000 for energy-saving home improvements like heat pumps, doors, windows, and insulation.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration has taken extensive action to limit junk fees of all types. For example, President Biden is delivering on his commitment to ban family seating fees that are costly and frustrating for many families with young children. Eliminating family seating fees can save a family with two children $200 for a round-trip itinerary. President Biden took action by requiring airlines to provide passengers with automatic cash refunds for cancelled or delayed flights and lost luggage. Under the Biden-Harris Administration, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) ramped up supervisory pressure on banks to examine their excessive overdraft and bounced check fee policies, leading many financial institutions to reduce or eliminate these fees, This saves consumers $6.2 billion per year. The CFPB also finalized a rule to close a longstanding loophole and slash credit card late fees from $32 to $8, and proposed a rule to reduce overdraft fees from $35 to $3. Further, the Federal Trade Commission proposed a cross-sector ban on junk fees including those in event ticketing, auto dealing, and the restaurant industry. The Council of Economic Advisers estimates that the Biden-Harris Administration’s efforts to combat junk fees will likely save Americans more than $20 billion annually.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration is also taking on monopoly power to lower prices for families, increase wages for workers, and promote innovation and economic growth in the American economy. Following the President’s Executive Order on Promoting Competition in the American Economy, the Administration has taken action to protect net neutrality; to protect farmers from unfair practices; to make hearing aids more affordable; to repair competition in ocean shipping; and more. President Biden has appointed leadership and funded agencies to vigorously enforce competition law whenever it is violated, including in big tech, ticketing, housing, pharmaceuticals, food, farming, infrastructure, airlines, and more. These enforcement actions and guidance have saved or returned billions of dollars to American consumers and have protected the dignity and economic freedom of the American people.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="6" data-column="3" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Increased Housing for Americans </h3> <p>After decades of under-investment in housing, we are finally seeing progress under President Biden and Vice President Harris with more units under construction than at any time in over 50 years, and the rate of new housing starts up 17%compared to under the last administration. </p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>President Biden believes every American deserves access to safe, accessible, and affordable housing.

In response, the Biden-Harris Administration deployed unprecedented tools to keep Americans housed, including nearly 11 million emergency rental assistance payments, and a first-of-its-kind national eviction prevention infrastructure that kept eviction filings below pre-pandemic levels for one and a half years after the eviction moratorium ended.</p> <p> President Biden has focused on building more housing and lowering housing costs. More housing units are under construction now than at any time in over 50 years, and the rate of new housing starts is up 17%compared to the last administration.

President Biden transformed our approach to the region, reversing America’s turn inward, which China was taking advantage of. The Biden-Harris Administration has deepened our security and economic partnerships, launching new security partnerships like AUKUS with Australia and the United Kingdom, spurred unprecedented defense and economic cooperation between the United States, South Korea and Japan, and forged new partnerships with U.S. treaty allies such as Japan and the Philippines. The Biden-Harris Administration created the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity with 13 other partners to ensure America is meeting the economic challenges of today and not two decades ago, such as building secure supply chains and protecting our critical technologies, and have brought together Atlantic and Pacific partners to shape the rules of the road and strengthen our edge in the competition with China in this decisive decade.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration has also created important historic partnerships, such as the Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity to drive the Western Hemisphere’s recovery and growth to deliver for working people. Under the Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection, the Administration has coordinated action to address the root causes of migration, expand lawful pathways, and strengthen humane enforcement against irregular migration – contributing to an approximately 58% reduction in irregular migration from Northern Central American countries since the launch of the Biden-Harris Administration’s Root Causes Strategy in July 2021.</p> <p> President Biden has also elevated the United States’ partnership with Africa, welcoming the African Union as a permanent member to the G20, and selecting Africa for the first and flagship economic corridor under his signature Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment (PGI) initiative to address the global infrastructure gap.</p> <p> Across the world, from Africa to the Western Hemisphere, to the Middle East and Indo-Pacific, President Biden is building the strongest possible coalition of nations to solve shared challenges and positioning the United States to shape the future of the international order.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="2" data-column="1" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Reinvigorated and Strengthened NATO </h3> <p>The Biden-Harris Administration reinvigorated the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) by welcoming - Sweden and Finland to the Alliance while also increasing defense spending across the Alliance to make us all safer and more secure.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>Thanks to President Biden’s leadership, NATO is stronger, bigger, more united, and as purposeful as at any point in history – and that makes us all safer and more secure.

These successful missions have sent a powerful message to all terrorists who threaten America and our interests around the world that the United States is committed to being relentless in these efforts.</p> <p> President Biden has brought home over 70 Americans held hostage or wrongfully detained from places around the world, such as Afghanistan, Burma, Gaza, Haiti, Iran, Russia, Rwanda, and Venezuela. He and his team have worked around the clock using intense diplomacy to negotiate for the release of Americans held hostages or wrongfully detained abroad so that they can be reunited with their families. At President Biden’s direction, the U.S. government also has begun issuing travel advisories warning Americans not to travel to certain countries given the risk of being wrongfully detained, and he issued a new executive order enabling the U.S. government to take action, including by imposing sanctions, to hold accountable those who take Americans hostage. President Biden has made clear that he will not stop working until every American wrongfully detained or held hostage around the world is reunited with their family.</p> <p> The United States announced its first-ever National Strategy to Counter Domestic Terrorism and first-ever U.S. Strategy on Countering Corruption.</p> <p> To combat the scourge of fentanyl and other synthetic drugs and to disrupt the supply of illicit opioids, the Biden-Harris Administration has coordinated international efforts through the Trilateral Fentanyl Committee with Canada and Mexico, the Global Coalition to Address Synthetic Drug Threats with over 150 countries, and counternarcotics cooperation with the PRC.</p> <p> President Biden has strengthened federal disaster response by directing his Administration to enhance preparedness for disasters.

President Biden signed into law the Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxins (PACT) Act which enacted the most significant expansion of benefits and services for toxic exposed veterans and their survivors in over thirty years. </p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>In 2022, President Biden signed the landmark bipartisan Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act into law, enacting the most significant expansion of benefits and services for toxic exposed veterans and their survivors in more than 30 years. Named in honor of Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson, a decorated combat medic who died from a rare form of lung cancer, this historic legislation is delivering timely benefits and services to veterans - across all generations - who have been impacted by toxic exposures while serving our country.</p> <p> Too often, military service can result in increased health risks for our veterans, and some injuries and illnesses like asthma, cancer, and others can take years to manifest. These realities can make it difficult for veterans and their survivors to establish a direct connection between their service and disabilities resulting from military environmental exposures such as burn pits – a necessary step to ensuring they receive the benefits they earned. The PACT Act eliminates these barriers and ensures veterans get the care and services they deserve. For survivors of veterans who died from a toxic related illness, the PACT Act provides a pathway to benefits including monthly stipends, access to home loans, as well as education benefits. Surviving veteran spouses with children can qualify for over $2,000 per month and funding toward college tuition.</p> <p> The Department of Veterans Affairs has delivered new PACT Act related disability benefits to more than 1 million veterans and over 10,000 survivors of veterans who died of a toxic related illness. This amounts to more than $6.8 billion in earned PACT Act related benefits over the past two years. Thanks in part to the PACT Act, the VA is delivering benefits to veterans and their survivors at the fastest rate in history, processing more than 2 million total claims (both PACT and non-PACT Act combined) so far in 2024 – an all-time record. Over 5 million veterans have been screened for toxic substance exposure. Under President Biden’s leadership, the Administration also reduced veteran homelessness by expanding access to permanent supportive housing, legal support, and job training for veterans and their families. In 2021, the Administration released a comprehensive public health strategy to reduce veteran suicide and has since expanded access to mental health services for veterans by removing cost-barriers, hiring more peer support specialists, and funding more community-based programs. Finally, the Administration took executive action to better support military and veteran spouses, caregivers and survivors by expanding critical programs, including those that crack down on predatory actors out to scam our veterans and military families as well as those that address food insecurity, access to quality childcare, job security for spouses, and mental health support.</p> <p> As members of a military family, the President and First Lady recognize the commitment and resilience of military-connected families as essential to the recruitment, retention, and readiness of our Armed Forces. Through the White House Joining Forces initiative led by Dr. Biden, the Biden-Harris Administration has worked to support military and veteran families, caregivers, and survivors. This includes an executive order making it easier for military spouses to obtain and keep jobs in the federal government -- the most comprehensive set of administrative actions any President has ever taken to support military spouses, with nearly 20 new actions aimed at enhancing career stability, expanding employment resources, and improving transition assistance support for military-connected spouses.</p> <p> In addition, the Biden-Harris Administration is ensuring that educators have the resources and tools they need to support military-connected children in the classroom, and the Department of Defense is implementing universal Pre-K in Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools, focusing on early childhood education access. The Biden-Harris Administration also supports military caregivers by providing resources and making child care and long-term care more accessible and affordable.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="2" data-column="1" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Cancer Moonshot </h3> <p>President Biden and Dr. Biden supercharged their commitment to end cancer as we know it and set bold goals to: reduce the cancer death rate in the United States by at least half – preventing more than 4 million cancer deaths a year – by 2047, and improve the experience of people who are touched by cancer. </p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>Cancer is personal to the President, the Vice President, and the First Lady, as it is to virtually every American family.

The Biden-Harris Administration is mobilizing the federal government, private companies, healthcare providers, research institutions, and patient and advocacy groups to accelerate progress on prevention, early detection, innovation, and support for patients and their families. The President and First Lady delivered actions to bring cancer screenings to more communities, rebounding to pre-pandemic screening levels after Americans missed nearly10 million cancer screenings during the pandemic. This included a more than $1 billion commitment from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, significant private sector action, and steps from the Department of Veterans Affairs to reach at least 1 million veterans with cancer screenings.</p> <p> With the President and First Lady’s leadership, the Biden-Harris Administration delivered the first-ever reimbursable navigation services for families facing cancer. This means that seniors with a cancer diagnosis will be able to have a patient navigator - someone who can help them get better informed, make treatment decisions, and access resources throughout their cancer journey. Additionally, by securing commitments from leading insurance companies to reimburse for navigation services, more than 150 million Americans using private insurance will have paid access to these services which improve outcomes and equity. President Biden and Vice President Harris also secured a bipartisan investment of $4 billion to pioneer new breakthroughs in preventing, detecting, and treating cancer and other life-threatening diseases, and established a new research agency, the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). ARPA-H has already committed more than $400 million in cutting-edge programs aimed at ending cancer as we know it. The Biden-Harris Administration also prioritized life-saving innovation for our nation’s military service members and veterans facing cancer through new VA and DOD investments and research programs, took steps through the Food and Drug Administration and National Institutes of Health to ensure clinical trials reach more communities, and supported the next generation of world-class scientists and cancer innovators through the National Cancer Institute’s Cancer Moonshot Scholars program. Through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Environmental Protection Agency dedicated more than $1 billion for cleanup projects at 50 toxic Superfund sites across the country and protected more than 100 million Americans from PFAS - the “forever chemicals” known to cause cancer and other health issues - by setting the first ever drinking water standard for PFAS and dedicating more than $20 billion to improve Americans’ drinking water.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="3" data-column="3" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Beating the Opioid and Overdose Epidemic </h3> <p>The Unity Agenda is solving big challenges that unite all Americans – like beating the opioid epidemic.

The Biden-Harris Administration has taken critical steps to make this possible, such as seizing more fentanyl at our border in the last two years than in the last five years combined, arresting and prosecuting dozens of high-level drug traffickers and cartel leaders, sanctioning over 300 entities and individuals involved in the global illicit drug trade, and forging historic counternarcotics cooperation with China. The Biden-Harris Administration also invested historic resources in prevention and treatment, expanding access to treatment of opioid use disorder to millions more Americans.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration also took unprecedented steps to expand access to naloxone and other harm reduction interventions, such as permitting the use funds for local public health departments to purchase naloxone, releasing guidance to make it easier for programs to obtain and distribute naloxone to at-risk populations, and prioritizing the review of over-the-counter naloxone applications. The Administration has also fundamentally changed addiction treatment across the country by working with Congress to remove barriers that prevented medical professionals from prescribing treatment for opioid use disorder and pursuing rulemaking to make permanent the COVID-19 era flexibilities that allowed for telehealth prescribing of buprenorphine and take-home methadone doses.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="5" data-column="1" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Managing the Promise of AI </h3> <p>The Biden-Harris Administration is taking extensive action to ensure that America leads the way in seizing the promise - and managing the risks - of artificial intelligence.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>In October 2023, the President issued a sweeping Executive Order on Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence.

He immediately restored the independence of the Department of Justice to respect the rule of law and required members of his Administration to sign the strongest ethics pledge ever to limit the power of special interests. He signed the Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act into law, establishing clear guidelines for certifying electoral votes to preserve the will of the people and protect against the type of attempts to overturn our elections that led to the January 6 insurrection. Annual funding for federal civil rights offices has increased by 23%since President Biden took office. Since then, the Department of Justice has doubled its number of voting rights attorneys and enforcement staff.</p> <p> President Biden released a bold plan to reform the Supreme Court, which includes term limits for Supreme Court Justices, a binding code of ethics for the Justices, and a constitutional amendment that clarifies that no president is above the law. President Biden continues to call on Congress to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and Freedom to Vote Act to protect the sacred right to vote in free and fair elections, counter corruption, and ensure the government is working for the people. In response to Congressional Republicans’ obstruction and refusal to debate the bills, President Biden called for reforming the filibuster to protect our democracy. As he continues to fight for this legislation, President Biden has used the tools at his disposal to strengthen our democracy, including issuing an Executive Order to expand access to voting.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="2" data-column="1" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Combating Hate of All Kinds </h3> <p>There is no place for political violence or for any violence in our country.

The Biden-Harris Administration has taken numerous steps to counter hate in all its forms. In May 2021, President Biden signed into law the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act, which includes the Khalid Jabara and Heather Heyer NO HATE Act, to ensure that hate crimes information is more accessible to Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. Since then, Attorney General Merrick Garland has appointed the Justice Department’s first-ever Anti-Hate Crimes Resources Coordinator and designated staff to oversee expedited review of hate crimes, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation has elevated hate crimes and criminal civil rights violations to its highest-level national threat priority, which has increased the resources for hate crimes prevention and investigations and made hate crimes a focus for all 56 of the Bureau’s field offices.</p> <p> In September 2022, President Biden and Vice President Harris convened the United We Stand Summit at the White House to bring together communities from across the country to counter hate-fueled violence and put forward a shared vision and agenda for working toward a more united America. At the summit, the Administration announced The White House Initiative to Counter Hate-Motivated Violence to address violence and bias against all communities. This initiative has - and will continue to - strengthen government actions to counter violence against Black, Arab, Latino, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, disabled, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and LGBTQI+ individuals and communities. In December 2022, President Biden established an interagency group to increase and better coordinate U.S. Government efforts to counter Antisemitism, Islamophobia, and related forms of bias and discrimination within the United States. In 2023, the President released the first-ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, which the Administration continues to implement. The Administration is also developing the first-ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia and related forms of bias and discrimination, including hatred against Muslims, Arabs, and Sikhs in the United States.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="3" data-column="3" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Advancing Equality and Racial Justice </h3> <p>The Biden-Harris Administration is championing racial equity and further advancing equal opportunity for underserved communities through landmark legislation and historic executive actions.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>From Day One, the Biden-Harris Administration committed to an ambitious whole-of government agenda to advance racial equity and support underserved communities.

The Administration has achieved the smallest racial wealth gap in 20 years. Other actions include: increasing access to federal contracting dollars, capital, and lending programs for small disadvantaged businesses; reducing discrimination in the housing market; protecting overburdened communities from environmental harms and toxic pollution; addressing historic disinvestment and infrastructure neglect; tackling persistent poverty and building economic prosperity in rural communities; addressing health and health care disparities; rooting out educational inequities and preserving pathways to equal opportunity; uplifting and protecting our shared National history; promoting fairness, safety, accountability in the justice system; combating bias, discrimination and hate-based violence; and bolstering proactive enforcement that protects the civil rights of all Americans.</p> <p> To affirm his commitment to racial justice, President Biden proudly signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act - the first new federal holiday to be established since Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day four decades prior to honor and preserve the significance of the African American history as U.S. history. This Act also serves as a recommitment to racial justice by uplifting our country’s history, celebrating and protecting the progress made, and looking towards the work unfinished.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="4" data-column="2" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Advancing Gender Equity and Equality </h3> <p>President Biden and Vice President Harris are leveraging the full force of the federal government to advance rights and opportunity for women and girls across the country and around the globe.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>From defending reproductive freedom, investing in women’s health research, and delivering the highest women’s labor force participation—to fighting to end violence against women, advancing the human rights of women and girls globally, and promoting women’s political participation and leadership, President Biden and Vice President Harris are investing in the future of women and girls. President Biden established the first-ever White House Gender Policy Council to advance the rights of women and girls at home and abroad and issued our nation’s first-ever National Strategy on Gender Equity and Equality to guide these efforts. He has signed Executive Orders to advance women’s rights by directing his Administration to defend reproductive freedom, eliminate discriminatory pay practices in the federal government, promote accountability for conflict-related sexual violence, implement bipartisan military justice reforms, and strengthen our nation’s recognition of women’s history.</p> <p> Because of the Vice President’s leadership, the Administration has also taken action to address the maternal health crisis, lower health care costs for women, close gaps in women’s health research, and extend Medicaid postpartum coverage from 2 months to 12 months of post-pregnancy care.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration is also fighting to end violence against women and girls in the United States and around the world - a cornerstone of the President’s career. As a U.S. Senator, President Biden wrote and championed the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), a landmark law that he has worked across the aisle to reauthorize and strengthen ever since. In 2022, he signed the VAWA Reauthorization Act of 2022 securing the highest-ever funding levels to support implementation of the law’s new protections and programs. President Biden also signed the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the most significant gun safety law in nearly three decades, to narrow the “boyfriend loophole” and help keep guns out of the hands of domestic abusers. The Administration is strengthening protections for survivors of sexual assault and harassment in the workplace, as well as ending gender-based violence wherever it occurs - at home, at work, at school, in the military, and online - guided by the White House’s first-ever U.S. National Plan to End Gender-Based Violence.</p> <p> President Biden also appointed a record number of female Cabinet Secretaries as well as the nation’s first Black woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, and the first woman ever elected as Vice President, Kamala Harris.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="5" data-column="1" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> LGBTQI+ Rights </h3> <p>President Biden signed the Respect for Marriage Act to protect the right to marry who you love and is the most pro-equality President in history.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>From Day One, President Biden has been instrumental in remedying historical injustices and advancing equality for LGBTQI+ Americans.

These Executive Orders formed the basis for dozens of executive actions and rules the whole Administration has taken to advance civil rights and improve the lives of LGBTQI+ Americans.

This includes the President’s America the Beautiful Initiative, which is supporting locally led conservation efforts across the country with a goal to protect, conserve, and restore at least 30 percent of U.S. lands and waters by 2030. The Biden-Harris Administration has already conserved more than 42 million acres of lands and waters.</p> <p> Since taking office, the Biden-Harris Administration has established or expanded eight national monuments and restored protections for three more; created five new national wildlife refuges and significantly expanded five more; established two new national marine sanctuaries and begun the process to designate or expand protections for five more; created one new national estuarine research reserve; protected the Boundary Waters of Minnesota, the nation’s most visited wilderness area; safeguarded Bristol Bay in southwest Alaska from mining and protected the Arctic Ocean from oil and gas development; and withdrawn Chaco Canyon in New Mexico and Thompson Divide in Colorado from further oil and gas leasing which will protect pristine lands and thousands of sacred sites. The Biden-Harris Administration launched the first ever United States Ocean Climate Action Plan.</p> <p> Because of his belief that conservation helps tell a more complete story of our Nation’s history, President Biden issued an Executive Order on Recognizing and Honoring Women’s History and preserved places significant to civil rights history, including the Springfield 1908 Race Riot and Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley National Monuments. The Biden-Harris Administration also directed the conservation of old growth and mature forests, put conservation on equal footing with development in managing our public lands and protected the Western Arctic for future generations. The Administration is leading by example on the global stage by launching the domestic America the Beautiful Freshwater Challenge, setting ambitious goals to restore, reconnect, and conserve 8 million acres of wetlands and 100,000 miles of rivers and streams by 2030, and leveraged the partnership of Tribes, states, cities, businesses, and non-profits to act in support of clean water.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="2" data-column="1" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Clean Energy Future </h3> <p>Under President Biden and Vice President Harris’ leadership, America is setting records for deployment of clean energy, as part of historic climate action that is making the nation safer and stronger, lowering energy costs for families, and creating good-paying union jobs.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>The Biden-Harris Administration’s Investing in America agenda has unleashed a boom in American solar, wind, battery storage, and other clean energy technologies, with 2024 expected to break the record set in 2023 for the most clean energy added to the grid in a year. These investments are also strengthening the power grid itself, by supporting new and upgraded transmission lines to deliver more affordable, reliable electricity and prevent outages. The Administration has made the largest investment in rural electrification since the 1930s, jumpstarted the American offshore wind industry by approving enough projects to power over five million homes, surpassed targets for new clean energy projects on public lands, and helped low-income households benefit from solar energy savings—all while making the permitting process more efficient so that projects can get built and start benefitting Americans, strengthening American clean energy manufacturing to make these technologies at home, and spurring economic development in energy communities that have powered our nation for generations.</p> <p> This clean energy boom is part of historic efforts by the Biden-Harris Administration to combat the climate crisis and provide communities with clean air, clean water, and healthy neighborhoods. The Administration created the first-ever National Climate Task Force to bring together federal agencies and take hundreds of new actions toward bold goals including cutting U.S. climate pollution by 50-52% below 2005 levels in 2030. These actions include launching the American Climate Corps to prepare tens of thousands of young people for good-paying jobs in the clean economy, saving Americans money on utility bills through more efficient homes and commercial buildings, rallying automakers and autoworkers to advance electric vehicle opportunities, helping make American manufacturing the cleanest and most competitive in the world, setting smart standards to reduce super-pollutants, investing in the nation’s farmers to support climate-smart agriculture, strengthening America’s forests, and making communities more resilient to extreme weather. The Administration has prioritized environmental justice across all these efforts and made historic strides on replacing lead pipes, protecting communities from PFAS pollution and other toxic chemicals, and cleaning up Superfund sites and other areas burdened by past pollution.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="3" data-column="3" data-row="1" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Education </h3> <p>A great education opens doors and changes lives, which is why, since Day One, the Biden-Harris Administration has focused on improving academic achievement, increasing student attendance and engagement, and building communities where all students feel they belong and can thrive. </p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>Through the American Rescue Plan, the Biden-Harris Administration secured $130 billion for America’s K-12 schools, the single-largest investment in K-12 education in history to help schools safely reopen and address the impact of COVID-19 on students’ academic, mental and physical health, and other needs. This investment is delivering results, including notable student achievement gains. The Administration is particularly focused on communities with high rates of poverty, driving almost $800 million to under-resourced schools. In addition to this investment, the Administration secured a $2 billion annual increase in Title I funding for our most underserved schools. The Biden-Harris Administration also provided a $1.5 billion increase in funding to support special education and related services for 7.5 million students with disabilities in America. Finally, the Administration is investing in our teachers, increasing investments by $112 million in preparing, recruiting, developing, and retaining teachers and securing $23 million in first-ever funding for the Augustus F. Hawkins Centers of Excellence Program to increase the number of teachers of color and multilingual educators across the country. Federal investments have helped create more than 643,000 education jobs.</p> <p> To help make our schools safer and meet the mental health and other needs of our students, the Administration provided $1 billion through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) for school-based mental health professionals, which will prepare 14,000 additional mental health professionals to serve America’s. And to further help meet the needs of students, the Administration increased investments in full-service community schools fivefold, including providing $253 million to create over 2,000 new full-service community schools that provide critical support to more than 1 million students to meet their physical, mental health, and academic needs.</p> <p> Importantly, the Administration has invested billions of dollars in Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribal Colleges and Universities, and Minority Serving Institutions, such as Hispanic-Serving Institutions and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions, including a record of over $17 billion for Historically Black Colleges and record $15 billion for Hispanic-Serving Institutions. The Administration also provided over $5 billion for American colleges, universities, nonprofits, and community organizations to increase college access and success for students from low-income backgrounds, first-generation students, and students with disabilities</p> <p> Finally, President Biden and Vice President Harris have expanded pathways to good-paying jobs – particularly those that do not require a four-year degree, growing Registered Apprenticeship opportunities and programs at community and technical colleges that connect growing sectors like clean energy, manufacturing, and infrastructure.</p> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="4" data-column="2" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Delivering for Diverse Communities </h3> <p>The Biden-Harris Administration is delivering the most equitable economic recovery on record across Black American, Latino American, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and Indigenous Communities.</p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <ul> <li><strong>Accomplishments for Black Americans</strong> <p> President Biden and Vice President Harris have delivered results for Black communities, including cutting child poverty nearly in half in 2021 and lifting 800,000 Black children out of poverty; tackling the Black maternal health crisis by expanding Medicaid postpartum care; increasing Black enrollment in Affordable Care Act coverage by 95%, or over 1.7 million people since 2020; signing an Executive Order that established the White House Initiative on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity for Black Americans; investing over $17 billion in Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); and creating 2.4 million jobs for Black workers—achieving the lowest Black unemployment rate on record going back more than 50 years. Under the Biden-Harris Administration, Black Americans are starting new businesses at the fastest rate in three decades, owning more homes and enjoying higher home appraisal values, and attaining increased educational opportunities at record rates—all contributing to a 60% increase in Black wealth compared to before the pandemic.</p> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration delivered on a Day One commitment to protect civil rights and fight back against systemic injustice. In July 2024, President Biden delivered over $2 billion in financial assistance to over 43,000 farmers, ranchers, and forest landowners— including many Black individuals— who previously experienced discrimination when applying to USDA farm loan programs. The Biden-Harris Administration has also taken historic steps to support small businesses and entrepreneurship within Black communities, including spending over $10 billion in Federal contracts with Black-owned small businesses in Fiscal Year (FY) 2023; and expanding access to capital that supports business creation and expansion, tripling lending of Small Business Administration-backed loans to Black-owned businesses compared to FY 2020. </li> <li><strong>Accomplishments for Latino Americans</strong> <p> Under the Biden-Harris Administration, more Latino communities are achieving the American dream than ever before. President Biden and Vice President Harris have created 5 million jobs for Latino workers; Latino-owned businesses are being created at the fastest rate in over a decade. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2023, Latino-owned small businesses were awarded more than $10 billion in Federal contracting dollars, and Small Business Administration-backed lending to Latino entrepreneurs has doubled since FY 2020. The Biden-Harris Administration has worked to further educational equity for Latino students, including signing an Executive Order establishing the White House Initiative on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity through Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) and investing a record of over $15 billion in Hispanic-serving colleges and universities. This year, the Administration also proposed a rule to expand eligibility for TRIO college access programs to Dreamers and others—allowing up to an estimated 50,000 more students from low-income backgrounds to access TRIO programs and services, and thousands more to attend college.</p> <p> The Administration has made healthcare more accessible, including by launching a grant program to train medical providers on culturally competent care for individuals with limited English proficiency; launched the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline, in English and Spanish; added Spanish text and chat services to the National 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline; and is fighting to expand eligibility for Affordable Care Act coverage to Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients—potentially helping more than 100,000 young people gain health insurance. President Biden and Vice President Harris are committed to supporting Latino Americans, both on the mainland and in Puerto Rico. The Administration launched the Puerto Rico Economic Dialogue and delivered more than $140 billion in Federal resources that have driven the island’s economic turnaround. Under the Biden-Harris Administration, Puerto Rico has added more than 100,000 new jobs, and the unemployment rate is now at a historic low of six percent compared to the long-term average of over 14 percent. </li> <li><strong>Accomplishments for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islanders</strong> <p> The Biden-Harris made historic investments in Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AA and NHPI) small business growth. In Fiscal Year 2023, Federal contracting awards to Asian American-owned small businesses totaled more than $20 billion, an increase of $2.7 billion over the previous year. The Small Business Administration also backed 7,500 loans to AAPI-owned businesses, totaling more than $6.4 billion. The Biden-Harris Administration has worked to secure the promise of America for AA and NHPI communities—including by issuing an Executive Order establishing the White House Initiative on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders and delivering $5 billion in American Rescue Plan funds to AA and NHPI-serving colleges and universities.</p> <p> In the wake of rising hate-based incidents targeting AA and NHPI communities in 2021, President Biden signed the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act into law and deployed Federal resources to improve hate crime reporting. To improve the Federal Government’s ability to serve all communities, the Administration revised Federal data standards on race and ethnicity for the first time in 27 years—including updates that will help ensure AA and NHPI individuals can more fully self-identify by specific ethnicity. The Administration has also strengthened language access, reducing barriers to Federal services for individuals with limited English proficiency and expanding the availability of several Asian languages across government programs. President Biden and Vice President Harris are committed to preserving Indigenous heritages and lands of Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders, including investing $11 million in educational programs for Native language revitalization and the preservation of Indigenous knowledge; expanding affordable housing options to Native Hawaiians, allowing more families to reside on the Hawaiian home lands; and leveraging the full force of the Federal Government and over $1.7 billion in emergency relief funds to support communities recovering from the disastrous Maui wildfires. </li> <li><strong>Accomplishments for Indigenous communities</strong> <p> The Biden-Harris Administration has made historic investments in Tribal Nations and Native communities through the American Rescue Plan ($32 billion), the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law ($13 billion), and the Inflation Reduction Act ($700 million). President Biden also issued Executive Order 14112, which establishes that it is the policy of the United States to design and administer Federal funding and support programs for Tribal Nations in a manner that better recognizes and supports Tribal sovereignty and self-determination. For the first time ever, the Biden-Harris Administration successfully secured Advance Appropriations for the Indian Health Service (IHS) and the President has requested mandatory funding for IHS moving forward. President Biden has mobilized an all-of-government approach to supporting the federal trust responsibility and Tribal treaty rights by reconstituting the White House Council on Native American Affairs and the White House Tribal Nations Summit. In addition, the President has followed through with his commitment to have an Administration that looks like America by appointing the first ever Native American Cabinet Secretary with Department of the Interior Secretary Deb Haaland in addition to over 80 Native Americans in senior administration roles across the Administration. The President has also reinforced Tribal Consultation by signing two Presidential Memorandums directing federal agencies to submit plans of action to implement meaningful consultation with Tribal Nations and establishing uniform standards for Tribal Consultation. In addition, the Biden-Harris Administration underscored the Administration’s respect for Indigenous Knowledge (IK) by issuing a Presidential Memorandum directing agencies to respect and incorporate IK in federal science policies and by entering into an unprecedented number of co-stewardship agreements among Tribes, Native groups, and Federal Departments for management of federal lands. </li> </ul> </div> </div> </button> <button type="button" class="record-section-card record-section-card--modal" data-index="5" data-column="1" data-row="2" > <div class="record-section-card__container"> <h3 class="record-section-card__heading"> Advancing Women’s Health Research and Innovation </h3> <p>Recognizing that research on women’s health remains underfunded and understudied, President Biden and Dr. Biden launched the first-ever White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research to spur innovation, unleash transformative investment to close research gaps, and improve women’s health. </p> <span class="record-section-card__button"> Learn More </span> <div class="record-section-card__modal"> <p>The President issued an Executive Order that directed the most comprehensive set of executive actions ever taken to advance research on women’s health, ensuring that women’s health is integrated and prioritized across the federal research portfolio and budget and galvanizing new research on a wide range of topics, including women’s midlife health.
