“Hope is on the horizon, and help is on the way,” Chuck Schumer said during a Rose Garden event on Friday celebrating the signing into law of the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief measure that now stands as a major early accomplishment of the Biden administration.
The message delivered by Schumer, Pelosi, Biden and Kamala Harris was: Government is a force for good. Democratic leaders were not only touting their own achievements but trying to restore trust, which has been dropping steadily for years.
“It’s critical to demonstrate government can function — can function and deliver prosperity, security and opportunity for people in this country,” Biden said. The pandemic, Democrats believe, appears to be restoring trust in government.
The new package deviates from its predecessors because it seeks to address ills that predated the pandemic. There is money in the new package to reduce child poverty, help Black farmers and increase the number of people who qualify for health care subsidies.
After the Democrats won both Jan. 5 runoff elections in Georgia, they fashioned a relief bill that suited their priorities without having to make painful compromises. That doesn’t mean every progressive dream was turned into reality: The $15 federal minimum wage, for example, fell out of the American Rescue Plan after a ruling by the Senate parliamentarian.
Overall, though, Democrats were eager to show Americans that they could work quickly and efficiently to shore up the economy and achieve what they consider important social goals.
“Promise made, promise fulfilled,” Pelosi said. The message from her and Schumer was clear: When Democrats are in charge, things get done.
The party reassured Americans that it was singularly focused on rescuing the economy and ending the coronavirus pandemic.
“Help is here, and we will not stop working for you,” Biden said.
