Cuellar discusses Biden's inauguration, first 100 days

Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX-28) held a press conference from his congressional office in Washington D.C. on Tuesday as he spoke about what could be expected from Wednesday’s inauguration and the ensuing first 100 days of Joe Biden’s presidency.

“President Biden will appeal for our unity. He will also be asking Americans to raise their sights and lower their voices, so we can work together to restore this country back again,” Cuellar said. “We are going to work with President Biden to turn this chapter — very dark chapter that we have seen — and try to set out on a more positive and optimistic vision.”

The congressman also focused on what he expects for Biden to do in his first hundred days in office.

According to the congressman, one of the main things that can be expected is a national movement to distribute vaccinations faster all over the country in efforts to quell the pandemic’s increasing and alarming trends. Biden’s plan calls for the distribution of about 100 million vaccines being distributed during his first 100 days in office.

The second major expectation that the congressman noted about the new incoming president is that he expects a renewed push for more stimulus monies in the first hundred days as well, which he hopes this time will feature more Republican support.
