By Anna Hessel

While some viciously attack Joe Biden I’ve been counting what #46 has done for America.

1. Joe beat Trump’s butt with the most votes received by any U.S. presidential candidate in U.S. history.
2. Joe’s working at saving the soul of our nation from MAGA and other far-right Republicans, he’s gotta ways to go, if you ask me, but he’s on it.
3. #46 has continued President Obama’s legacy of inclusive diversity.
4. As Vice President under President Obama, Biden spearheaded the fight to bring affordable healthcare to more people. President Biden continues to fight for affordable healthcare, expanding and improving the program whenever possible.
5. Together, back in 2008, Obama and Biden saved the U.S. auto industry.
6. joe sponsored, and has continued to fight for and strengthen the Violence Against Women Act.
7. On Joe’s first day in office he re-entered the Paris Climate Agreement.
8. Our average Joe from Scranton, PA met with King Charles III and billionaire philanthropists regarding financing climate change measures.
9. The brand new president Biden rehired Dr. Fauci and worked tirelessly to get COVID vaccines in the arms of millions of Americans, helping to end the pandemic.
10. Joe gave Americans a COVID relief package immediately upon taking office, and (actually) worked to send out stimulus checks. Thanks, Joe, I bought a set of desperately needed tires for my car.
11. Our Joe gave us our first female Vice President a woman of color and our first Second Gentlemen.
12. 46 has come out fighting for student loan relief, and despite SCOTUS’ rejection of his administration’s first attempt to erase some portions of student debt he is working on a different method of loan relief.
13. Class and dignity have returned to the White House with a beautiful Doctor of Education as our First Lady.
14. Joe Biden acts like an actual man of God, not someone that just holds a Bible in front of a church which he didn’t attend for a photo op. President Biden prayed for our nation during his inaugural address – his sincerity is humbling and refreshing.
15. A mammoth infrastructure plan; a plan to fix roads and bridges, railways and airports that have been allowed to deteriorate for at least the last 50 years.
16. Respects our military – a proud serviceman’s father-who is honored to lay wreaths and flowers on the graves of those lost in our wars, not insult them as “suckers and losers.”
17. An empathetic Joe gave his personal cell phone number to a little boy that stutters, an affliction that has plagued the president and told the boy to call anytime just too talk.
18. He has lowered everyday expenses for U.S. families with the Inflation Reduction Act and the Child Tax Credit legislation.
19. U.S. veterans who have been exposed to toxic situations, like the Iraq burn pits, and contaminated water at Camp LeJeune, are receiving services and benefits like no other time in history.
20. Bidenomics have rescued the U.S. economy from  disaster without padding the pockets of the 2%.
21. Made in America means more than ever.

26. Joe has fought for reproductive freedom, not advocating abortion but realistically understanding the need for choice.
27. Advocating for climate change, creating as many as nine million jobs in the process.
28. Helping households to lower their energy costs.
