House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is optimistic the United States will enter a period of prosperity after Americans chose President-Elect 👤Joe Biden to be the nation’s next leader.

“Today marks the dawning of a new day of hope for America. A record-shattering 75 million Americans cast their ballots to elect 👤Joe Biden President of the United States – a historic victory that has handed Democrats a mandate for action,” Pelosi said in a statement.

She explained Biden will “finally begin to crush the coronavirus so we can safely reopen our economy and schools.”

Pelosi argued, “In President-elect Biden, the American people delivered a mandate for lower health costs, a mandate for creating bigger paychecks by rebuilding America’s infrastructure, and a mandate for cleaner government that works for the public interest, not the special interests.

She concluded, “Working together, we have the opportunity to deliver extraordinary progress For The People.”
