SPENDS APPROXIMATELY 600 BILLION DOLLARS AND GOVERNOR FOR CHAIRMAN TO KEEP THE COUNTRY GOING SAFE AND SECURE. AND THERE'S A LAW THAT'S BEEN ON THE BOOKS FOR ALMOST A CENTURY. NOW TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT MONEY WAS SPENT TAXPAYERS DOLLARS FOR PROCUREMENT. HIS SUPPORTERS SPENT TO SUPPORT AMERICAN JOBS AND AMERICAN BUSINESSES. BUT THE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION DIDN'T TAKE IT SERIOUSLY ENOUGH FEDERAL AGENCIES WAIVED THE BUY AMERICAN REQUIREMENT WITHOUT MUCH PUSHBACK AT ALL. BIG CORPORATIONS AND SPECIAL INTERESTS HAVE LONG FOUGHT FOR LOOPHOLES TO REDIRECT AMERICAN TAXPAYERS DOLLARS TO FOREIGN COMPANIES FOR THE PRODUCTS ARE BEING CAN BEING MADE. THE RESULT 10'S OF BILLIONS OF AMERICAN TAXPAYERS DOLLARS SUPPORTING FOREIGN JOBS AND FOREIGN MINISTERS. IN 1980 EXCUSE ME IN TWENTY-EIGHTEEN ALONE. THE DEPARTMENT SPENT 3 BILLION DOLLARS. THE DEFENSE DEPARTMENT ON FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS, LEAVING AMERICAN STEEL AND IRON OUT IN THE COLD. HE SPENT NEARLY 300 MILLION IN FOREIGN ENGINES AND ON VEHICLES INSTEAD OF BUYING AMERICAN VEHICLES AND ENGINES FROM AMERICAN COMPANIES PUTTING AMERICANS TO WORK. UNDER THE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CONTRACT AWARDED DIRECTLY TO FOREIGN COMPANIES WENT UP 30%. IS GOING TO CHANGE ON OUR WATCH TODAY. I'M TAKING THE FIRST STEPS IN MY LARGER BUILD BACK BETTER RECOVERY PLAN THAT INVEST IN AMERICAN WORKERS, UNIONS AND BUSINESSES UP AND DOWN THE SUPPLY CHAIN. AND I KNOW THE PREVIOUS PRESIDENT CENTER OFFICE BY PROMISING TO BUY AMERICA AND AS TO THE CAN POLICY. BUT HERE'S WHY. THIS IS DIFFERENT AND NOT THE SAME. I'LL BE SIGNING AN EXECUTIVE ORDER. JUST A MOMENT. TIGHTENING THE EXISTING BUY AMERICAN POLICIES IN GO FURTHER. WE'RE SETTING CLEAR DIRECTIVES AND CLEAR EXPLANATIONS. WE'RE GOING TO GO TO CORE ISSUE WITH A CENTRALIZED COORDINATED EFFORT. TODAY. I'M CREATING A DIRECTOR OF MADE IN AMERICA AT THE WHITE HOUSE OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET. WHO WILL OVERSEE ARE ALL GOVERNMENT MADE IN AMERICA INITIATIVE THAT STARTS WITH STOPPING FEDERAL AGENCIES FROM WAVY BYNUM AIR BUY AMERICAN REQUIREMENTS WITH IMPUNITY HAS BEEN GOING ON. IF AN AGENCY WANTS TO ISSUE A WAIVER TO SAY WE'RE NOT GOING TO BUY AN AMERICAN PRODUCT AS PART OF THIS PROJECT. WE'RE GOING TO BUY FARM PRODUCT. THEY HAVE TO COME TO THE WHITE HOUSE AND EXPLAIN IT TO US. WE'RE GOING TO REQUIRE THAT WAIVERS BE PUBLICLY POSTED. THAT IS HEARD. SO SEEKING A WAIVER TO BUILD THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE OR FACILITY AND IT'S GOING TO BUY THE FOLLOWING FORM PARTS THAT WAIVER THE REQUEST FOR ITS GOING TO BE POSTED. WE'LL WORK WITH SMALL AMERICAN MANUFACTURERS AND BUSINESSES TO GIVE THEM A SHOT TO RAISE THEIR HAND AND SAY, YEAH, I CAN DO THAT HERE. MY SHOP IN MY TOWN. IT'S ABOUT AS I'VE YOU HEARD ME SAY BEFORE YOU HAVE A FRIEND WHO IS A GREAT ASSET. HE SAID YOU GOT TO KNOW HOW TO KNOW SMALL BUSINESSES DON'T EVEN KNOW THEY CAN COMPETE 4 MAKING THE PRODUCT THAT IS ATTEMPTING TO BE WAIVED AND NOT BE ABLE TO BE BOUGHT ABROAD. AND I'M DIRECTING THE OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT BUDGET TO REVIEW WAIVERS TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE ONLY USED IN VERY LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES FOR EXAMPLE, AND THERE'S AN OVERWHELMING NATIONAL SECURITY HUMANITARIAN OR EMERGENCY NEED HERE IN AMERICA. THIS HASN'T HAPPENED BEFORE. IT WILL HAPPEN NOW. HERE'S WHAT ELSE WE'RE GOING. WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING OR THE BUILD BACK. BETTER RECOVERY PLAN. WE'LL INVEST HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS DOLLARS IN BUYING AMERICAN PRODUCTS AND MATERIALS TO MODERNIZE OUR INFRASTRUCTURE AND OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTH WILL INCREASE IN A COMPETITIVE WORLD. THAT MEANS MILLIONS OF GOOD-PAYING JOBS USING AMERICAN MADE STEEL AND TECHNOLOGY TO REBUILD OUR ROADS, OUR BRIDGES, OUR PORTS AND THEN MAKE THEM MORE CLIMATE RESILIENT AS WELL AS MAKE A MOVE ABLE TO MOVE FASTER AND CHEAPER AND CLEANER TO TRANSPORT AMERICAN MADE GOODS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND AROUND THE WORLD MAKING US MORE COMPETITIVE. IT ALSO MEANS REPLENISHING OUR STOCKPILES TO ENHANCE OUR NATIONAL SECURITY. AS THIS PANDEMIC HAS MADE CLEAR WE CAN NEVER AGAIN BE IN A POSITION WE HAVE TO RELY ON A FOREIGN COUNTRY THAT DOESN'T SHARE OUR INTEREST IN ORDER TO PROTECT OUR PEOPLE DURING A NATIONAL EMERGENCY. WE NEED TO MAKE OUR OWN PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT, ESSENTIAL PRODUCTS AND SUPPLIES. AND WE'LL WORK WITH OUR ALLIES TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE RESUMED THEIR SUPPLY CHAINS AS WELL. ALSO MAKE HISTORIC INVESTMENTS IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO SHARPEN AMERICA'S INNOVATIVE EDGE IN MARKETS FOR GLOBAL LEADERSHIP IS UP FOR GRABS. MARCUS LIKE BATTERY TECHNOLOGY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE BIOTECHNOLOGY CLEAN ENERGY. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ALSO OWNS AN AN ENORMOUS FLEET OF VEHICLES WHICH WE'RE GOING TO REPLACE WITH CLAY ELECTRIC VEHICLES MADE RIGHT HERE IN AMERICA BY AMERICAN WORKERS, CREATING MILLIONS OF JOBS. MILLION AUTOWORKER JOBS AND CLEAN ENERGY AND VEHICLES THAT ARE NET 0 EMISSIONS AND TOGETHER THIS WILL BE THE LARGEST MOBILIZATION OF PUBLIC INVESTMENT OF PROCUREMENT, INFRASTRUCTURE AND OUR INDIE SINCE WORLD WAR 2. AND WITH THE EXECUTIVE ORDER, I'LL BE SIGNING TODAY WILL INCREASE BY AMERICAN REQUIREMENTS FOR THE FOR THESE KINDS OF PROJECTION, IMPROVE THE WAY WE MEASURE DOMESTIC CONTENT REQUIREMENTS, FOR EXAMPLE, RIGHT NOW. IF YOU HAD A FRACTURE VEHICLE FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. YOU NEED TO SHOW THE LEAST 50% OF THE COMPONENTS OF THAT VEHICLE REMAIN AMERICA. BUT BECAUSE OF LOOPHOLES THAT HAVE BEEN EXPANDED OVER TIME. YOU CAN COUNT THE LEAST VALUABLE POSSIBLE PARTS AS PART OF THAT 50% TO SAY MADE IN AMERICA WHILE THE MOST VALUABLE PARTS THE ENGINES, THE STEAL, THE GLASS, THE MATTER OF FACT, ARE MANUFACTURED ABROAD. SO BASICALLY, BUT BASICALLY WE'RE BATTING 0 FOR 2. THE CONTENT THRESHOLD OF 50% AREN'T HIGH ENOUGH AND THE WAY WE MEASURE THE CONTENT DOESN'T ACCOUNT FOR US JOBS AND ECONOMIC ACTIVITY. WE'RE GOING TO CHANGE THAT AS WELL. THE EXECUTIVE ACTION I'M SIGNING TODAY WILL NOT REQUIRE THE COMPANIES MAKE MORE OF THEIR COMPONENTS IN AMERICA, BUT THAT THE VALUE OF THOSE COMPONENTS IS CONTRIBUTING TO OUR ECONOMY MEASURED BY THINGS LIKE A NUMBER OF AMERICAN JOBS CREATED AND OR SUPPORT IT. THE SAME TIME WILL BE COMMITTED TO WORKING WITH OUR TRADING PARTNERS TO MODERNIZE INTERNATIONAL TRADE RULES, INCLUDING THOSE RELATING TO GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT TO MAKE SURE WE CAN USE. WE CAN ALL USE OUR TAXPAYER DOLLARS TO SPUR INVESTMENT THAT PROMOTES GROWTH AND RESILIENT SUPPLY CHAINS. AND HERE'S WHAT ELSE THE ACTION DOES. WHEN WE BUY AMERICA. WE'LL BUY FROM ALL OF AMERICA. THAT INCLUDES COMMUNITIES THAT HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN LEFT OUT OF GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT. BLACK BROWN NATIVE AMERICANS, SMALL BUSINESSES AND ENTREPRENEURS IN EVERY REGION OF THE COUNTRY. WE WILL USE A NATIONAL MANUFACTURERS CALLED THE MANUFACTURING EXTENSION PARTNERSHIP. THAT'S IN ALL 50 STATES AND PUERTO RICO TO HELP GOVERNMENT AGENCY CONNECT WITH NEW DOMESTIC SUPPLIERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THIS IS A CRITICAL PIECE OF BUILDING OUR ECONOMY BACK BETTER AND INCLUDING EVERYONE IN A DEAL. THIS TIME ESPECIALLY SMALL BUSINESSES THAT ARE BADLY HURTING IN THIS ECONOMY. THE EXECUTIVE ACTION I'M TAKING ALSO REITERATES MY STRONG SUPPORT FOR THE JONES ACT AND AMERICAN VESSELS. YOU KNOW, I AND OUR PORTS, ESPECIALLY THOSE IMPORTANT. THE FOR AMERICA'S CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE AND THE DEVELOPMENT OFFSHORE RENEWABLE ENERGY. I'LL CLOSE WITH THIS. THE REASON WE NEED TO DO THIS IS AMERICA CAN'T SIT ON THE SIDELINES IN THE RACE FOR FUTURE. OUR COMPETITORS ARE WEIGHTY. TO ENSURE THE FUTURE IS MADE IN AMERICA. WE NEED TO WIN NOT JUST THE JOBS TODAY BUT THE JOBS AND INDUSTRIES OF TOMORROW. WE KNOW THAT THE MIDDLE CLASS BUILT THIS COUNTRY. WE ALSO KNOW UNIONS BUILT THE MIDDLE CLASS. SO LET'S INVEST IN THEM ONCE AGAIN. I KNOW WE'RE READY DESPITE ALL THE ALL WE'RE FACING. I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT THE FUTURE AMERICAN. I AM TODAY. GIVEN EVEN JUST HAVE A CHANCE. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THE AMERICAN WORKERS HAS NEVER EVER LET THE COUNTRY DOWN. IMAGINE IF YOU GIVE THEM A FULL CHANCE. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO. I'LL STOP HERE AND SIGN AN EXECUTIVE ORDER THEN COME BACK AND TAKE SOME OF YOUR QUESTIONS. ITS EXECUTIVE ORDER. AND SURE THE FUTURE IS MADE IN AMERICA. HAVE IT. >> TOPICS. IF IF I MAY. THE FIRST YOU HAVE MADE REOPENING SCHOOLS A CENTRAL PART OF YOUR FIRST 100 DAYS OF LAW FOR YOURSELF AS ALLY TO TEACHERS AND UNIONS RIGHT NOW, CHICAGO TEACHERS UNION HAS REFUSED TO FIGHT IN ORDER TO RETURN TO IN PERSON CLASSES FOR IN PERSON CLASSROOMS BECAUSE OF A LACK OF VACCINATIONS. DO YOU BELIEVE, SIR, THE TEACHER SHOULD RETURN TO SCHOOLS. NOW. I BELIEVE WE SHOULD MAKE. >> SCHOOL CLASSROOMS. SAFE AND SECURE. FOR THE STUDENTS. FOR THE TEACHERS. AND FOR THAT. HELPED US IN THOSE SCHOOLS. MAINTAINING THE FACILITIES. WE NEED NEW VENTILATION SYSTEM. THOSE SCHOOLS. WE NEED TESTING FOR PEOPLE COMING IN AND OUT OF THE CLASSES. WE NEED TESTING FOR TEACHERS AS WELL AS STUDENTS. AND WE NEED TO CAPACITY THE CAPACITY TO KNOW THAT IN FACT, THE SAY THE SICK OF THE CIRCUMSTANCE IN THE SCHOOL IS SAFE AND SECURE FOR EVERYONE. FOR EXAMPLE. THERE'S NO REASON WHY HAVE THE CLEAR GUIDANCE WILL BE EVERY SCHOOL SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY SANITIZED. FROM THE FROM THE LABORATORIES TO THE HALLWAYS. AND SO THIS IS ABOUT MAKING AND NONE OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS THAT I'M AWARE OF. THERE MAY BE SOME. PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS HAVE INSISTED THAT ALL THOSE PIECES BE IN PLACE. AND I MIGHT ADD. SAME KIND OF THING. I HOPE WE CAN DO A SMALL BUSINESSES AND BUSINESS, MAKING SURE THEY HAVE THE CAPACITY TO TEST THEIR WORKERS WHEN THEY COME IN TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE PLASTIC DIVIDERS IT IN OF BEACH BETWEEN THEIR BOOST IN THEIR IN THEIR RESTAURANTS AND CENTER TO MAKE SURE THEY CAN SANITIZE SO IT'S NOT SO MUCH ABOUT THE IDEA TEACHERS AREN'T GOING TO WORK. THE TEACHERS. I KNOW THEY WANT TO WORK. THEY JUST WANT TO WORK IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT AND AS SAFE YOU CAN RATIONALLY MAKE IT AND WE CAN DO THAT. AND WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO OPEN UP EVERY EVERY SCHOOL KINDERGARTEN THROUGH 8TH GRADE IF IN FACT WE ADMINISTER THESE TESTS AND WE'LL HAVE THE ADDED ADVANTAGE. PUTTING MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BACK TO WORK. ALL THOSE MOTHERS AND FATHERS IN HER HOME TAKING CARE OF THEIR CHILDREN RATHER THAN GO TO WORK EVEN WHEN THEY CAN WORK, THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO DO UNLESS THEY HAVE THE LUXURY OF WORKING DISTANCE, WISE. LIKE MANY OF US, TOO. THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO DO IT. AND SO THIS IS ABOUT GENERATING ECONOMIC GROWTH OVERALL AS WELL. >> THANK YOU, MISTER I'M ALEX ALPER FROM REUTERS. I WANTED TO ASK A QUESTION ABOUT OF ALL ME. IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING IMPOSING SANCTIONS ON ANY OF THE INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED IN HIS POISONING AND OR HIS ARREST WHEN HE RETURNED FROM GERMANY AND IF NOT, IS THAT RELATED TO YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT POTENTIALLY DERAILING A NEW START EXTENSION. THANK YOU. >> I FIND THAT WE CAN BOTH. OPERATE IN THE MUTUAL SELF-INTEREST OF OUR COUNTRIES AS A NEW START AGREEMENT AND MAKE IT CLEAR TO RUSSIA THAT WE ARE WE ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR BEHAVIOR, WHETHER IT'S NAVALNY WEATHER IS TODAY. SOLAR WINDS OR WHETHER IT'S REPORTS OF BOUNTIES ON THE HEADS OF OF AMERICANS IN AFGHANISTAN. I'VE ASKED THE AGENCIES AND QUESTION TO DO A THOROUGH, A THOROUGH READ FROM AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE ISSUES TO UPDATE ME PRECISELY WHERE THEY ARE AND I WILL NOT HESITATE TO RAISE THOSE ISSUES WITH THE RUSSIANS. >> A QUESTION ABOUT YOUR COVID RELIEF DEAL ON FRIDAY. YOU SAID THE NATION IS A NATIONAL EMERGENCY. WE SHOULD ACT LIKE IT GIVEN THAT GIVEN THE SCALE AND THE SEVERITY OF THE NEED. HOW LONG ARE YOU WILLING TO GET SUFFICIENT REPUBLICAN SUPPORT BEFORE YOU WOULD GREEN-LIGHT DEMOCRAT ATTEMPTS TO USE RECONCILIATION FOR INSTANCE, TO PASS THAT BILL. >> THE DECISION OF RECONCILIATION WILL BE ONE MADE BY THE LEADERS OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE. BUT HERE'S THE DEAL. HI HAVE BEEN. DOING LEGISLATIVE NEGOTIATIONS FOR A LOT OF LARGE PART OF MY LIFE. I KNOW HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS AND WHAT I'M NOT GAGGED CAN'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING AT ALL. BUT I CAN SAY THAT WHAT I'M GOING TO BE DOING. AND WE'VE ALREADY BEGUN IS MAKING IT CLEAR, TOO. THE LEADERSHIP IN THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE AS WELL AS. GROUP OF 16 THAT GROUP OF BIPARTISAN GROUP AS WELL AS REPUBLICAN INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE AN INTEREST IN THE ISSUES THAT ARE IN THAT MY PACKAGE AND SAY HERE'S WHAT I'M DOING HERE IS WHY I WANT TO DO IT. HERE'S WHAT I THINK WE NEED TO DO IT AND WHAT KIND OF SUPPORT CAN OR CAN'T YOU GIVE TO THAT AND THEN WE GO ON TO THE WAY WHICH WE DEAL WITH LEGISLATION ALL THE TIME. YOU KNOW, WE DIDN'T VOTES FOR THE RECOVERY WHEN BARACK AND I CAME INTO OFFICE. WE WERE SHORT 3 VOTES. WE DIDN'T KNOW WE HAD THE VOTES UNTIL. >> THE DAY OF THE DAY OF OF VERY HEATED UP. BUT HERE'S THE DEAL. YOU KNOW. IT'S INTERESTING. AND I KNOW. YOU ASK A LOT OF THESE QUESTIONS, YOU KNOW THE ANSWERS, BUT YOU HAVE TO WEAR TO HELP EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AS WELL. I'M NOT SUGGESTING YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M ABOUT TO SAY. NO ONE WANTS TO GIVE UP IN THEIR POSITION UNTIL THERE'S NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE. THEY HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION THAT THEY DON'T DO. WHAT THEY DON'T SUPPORT WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED ARE THEN THE SYSTEM. WHAT THEY HAVE OR THEY LET IT ALL GO A FALL DOWN. I THINK WE'RE FAR FROM THAT POINT RIGHT NOW, THE DECISION TO USE RECONCILIATION WILL DEPEND UPON HOW THESE NEGOTIATIONS GO. LET ME MAKE CLEAR ABOUT NEGOTIATIONS. I'VE ALWAYS BELIEVE PART OF NEGOTIATION ON THE PART OF THE PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN OF A COMMITTEE TRYING TO GET A MAJOR PIECE OF LEGISLATION PASSED. IS ABOUT CONSULTATION. IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR ME JUST TO COME UP TO YOU AND SAY I LIKE THIS. I EXPECT YOU TO SUPPORT IT. I WANT TO EXPLAIN TO YOU WHY I THINK IT'S SO IMPORTANT. IN THIS PACKAGE THAT WE HAVE TO PROVIDE FOR MONEY FOR ADDITIONAL VACCINES. WHY? I THINK IT'S SO IMPORTANT WHY WE PROVIDE FOR MONEY TO EXTEND UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS. WHY. I THINK IT'S SO IMPORTANT THAT WE PROVIDE MONEY TO PROVIDE FOR THE ABILITY OF PEOPLE NOT TO BE THROWN OUT OF THEIR APARTMENTS. DURING THIS PANDEMIC BECAUSE THEY CAN'T AFFORD THE RENT. AND TO MAKE THE CASE TO YOU. WHY I THINK IN WHAT I THINK THE PRIORITIES WAS IN THIS PIECE THAT WE THINK THE PRIORITIES ARE. WERE WE WOULD WITHIN THIS LEGISLATION AND I DON'T EXPECT WE'LL KNOW WHETHER WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT ON WHAT WHAT EXTENT THE ENTIRE PACKAGE WILL BE ABLE TO PASS OR NOT PASS UNTIL WE GET RIGHT DOWN TO THE VERY END OF THIS PROCESS WHICH WOULD BE PROBABLY IN A COUPLE WEEKS. BUT THE POINT IS THIS IS JUST THE PROCESS BEGAN. >> THANK YOU, MISTER PRESIDENT AND THE LYNSKEY WITH THE WASHINGTON POST. I WANT TO ASK YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ONE OF THE MAJOR THEMES OF YOUR CAMPAIGN AND HOW YOU SORT OF INTEND TO MEASURE AND THEN ACT AND THAT IS THE IDEA OF OF UNITY. IF YOU COULD TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT YOU SEE UNITY AS BEING THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO ARE DEFINING AS BEING BIPARTISAN. OTHERS ARE SAYING IS WHAT MOST OF THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY TO FIND BY SOME POLL MIGHT BELIEVE ALREADY CERTAIN NUMBER OF PERHAPS IT'S 50 PLUS ONE 50 PLUS 2 OR 75% N GIVEN THAT IT IS SUCH A KEY PART OF YOUR MESSAGE AND YOUR PROMISE. CAN YOU TALK AND REFLECT A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT WHAT IS UNITY WHEN YOU SEE IT HAS YOU DEFINE IT. >> MAKES SEVERAL OF THE ISSUES. POINT YOU MADE. ONE IS UNITY REQUIRES YOU TO. ELIMINATE THE VITRIOL. MAKE ANYTHING THAT YOU DISAGREE WITH ABOUT THE OTHER PERSON'S PERSONALITY OR THEIR LACK OF INTEGRITY OR THEY'RE NOT DECENT LEGISLATORS AND THE LIKE. SO WE HAVE TO GET RID OF THAT. AND I THINK THAT'S ALREADY BEGINNING TO CHANGE. BUT GOD KNOWS WHERE THINGS GO NUMBER ONE. UNITY ALSO IS TRYING TO REFLECT WHAT THE MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. DEMOCRAT, REPUBLICAN, INDEPENDENT. THANK IS WITHIN THE FULCRUM OF WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO MAKE THEIR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF AMERICANS BETTER. FOR EXAMPLE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA AND I'M NOT CLAIMING THE POINT THAT HAS TO BE EXACT. IF YOU LOOK AT THE DATA, YOU HAVE. I THINK IT'S I I HOPE I'M SAYING THAT IT GETS CRAZY MAY CORRECT ME IF I GET TO NUMBER. I THINK IT'S 5758% OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, INCLUDING REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS AND INDEPENDENTS THINK THAT WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE COVID VACCINE. WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE BE HURTING BADLY CANDY DON'T HAVE FOOD ARE IN A POSITION WHERE THEY'RE BROUGHT TO THROWN OUT OF THEIR APARTMENTS, ET CETERA, BEING ABLE TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET A JOB THAT THEY ALL THINK WE SHOULD BE ACTING. WE SHOULD BE DOING MORE. UNITY ALSO IS TRYING TO GET AT AT A MINIMUM. IF YOU PASS A PIECE OF LEGISLATION THAT BREAKS DOWN ON PARTY LINES BUT IT IS PASSED. IT DOESN'T MEAN THERE WASN'T UNITY. IT JUST MEANS IT WASN'T BIPARTISAN. I PREFER THESE THINGS TO BE BIPARTISAN BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO GENERATE SOME CONSENSUS AND TAKE SORT OF THE. HOW CAN I SAY THE VICTORY ALL OUT OF ALL BECAUSE I'M CONFIDENT I'M CONFIDENT FROM MY DISCUSSIONS. THERE A NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS WHO KNOW WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT FOOD INSECURITY FOR PEOPLE IN THIS PANDEMIC. I'M CONFIDENT THEY KNOW WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT FIGURING OUT HOW TO GET CHILDREN BACK IN SCHOOL. THERE'S JUST THERE'S EASY WAYS TO DO WITH THIS ONE IF YOU'RE ANTI UNION SAYS ALL BECAUSE THE TEACHERS, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE ITS CASE, THOUGH, THAT YEAH. THAT IS COMPLICATED. YOU SAY, WELL, WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO MAKE IT SAFE, TO GET NO SCHOOLS. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE ARGUMENTS, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU KNOW, I PROPOSE THAT WE BECAUSE IT WAS BIPARTISAN. I THOUGHT IT INCREASE THE PROSPECTS OF PASSAGE SAYS THE ADDITIONAL $1400 IN DIRECT CASH PAYMENTS TO FOLKS. WELL, THERE'S A LEGITIMATE REASON PEOPLE SAY DO YOU HAVE THE LINES DRAWN THE EXACT RIGHT WAY. SHOULD IT GO TO ANYBODY MAKING OVER X NUMBER OF DOLLARS OR WHY I'M OPEN TO NEGOTIATE THOSE THINGS. THAT'S ALL I PICKED IT BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS RATIONAL REASONABLE AND IT HAD OVERWHELMING BIPARTISAN SUPPORT IN THE HOUSE WHEN THE PAST. BUT THIS IS ALL A BIT OF A MOVING TARGET IN IN TERMS OF PRECISION WITH WHICH THIS COZY ASK MY UNITY. 51 VOTES BIPARTISAN CENTER. THE OTHER PIECE OF THIS IS THAT THE ONE THING THAT GIVES ME HOPE. THAT NOT ONLY GOING TO SORT OF STAY AWAY FROM THE ATTACKS ON ONE ANOTHER. IS THAT THERE IS AN OVERWHELMING CONSENSUS. AMONG THE MAJOR ECONOMIST AT HOME AND IN THE WORLD. THAT THE WAY TO AVOID A DEEPER DEEPER DEEPER RECESSION MOVING IN THE DIRECTION OF LUCIAN OUR COMPETITORS CAPACITY IS TO SPEND MONEY NOW. TO GET FROM FROM FROM ACROSS THE BOARD. EVERY MAJOR INSTITUTION IS SAID IF WE DON'T INVEST NOW WE'RE GOING TO LOSE SO MUCH ALTITUDE IN TERMS OF OUR EMPLOYMENT BASE, IN OUR ECONOMIC GROWTH. IT'S GOING TO BE HARDER TO REESTABLISH. WE CAN AFFORD TO DO IT NOW AS MATTER OF FACT, THE I THINK THE RESPONSE HAS BEEN WE CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO INVEST. NOW WE CAN'T AFFORD TO FAIL TO INVEST. NOW I THINK THERE'S A GROWING REALIZATION OF THAT ON THE PART OF ALL BUT SOME VERY, VERY. HARD-EDGED PARTISANS MAYBE ON BOTH SIDES. BUT I THINK THERE IS A GROWING CONSENSUS WHETHER WE GET IT ALL DONE EXACTLY THE WAY I WANT IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. BUT I'M CONFIDENT THAT WE CAN WORK OUR WAY THROUGH. WE HAVE TO WORK OUR WAY THROUGH BECAUSE I'VE SAID A 100 TIMES. THERE IS NO ABILITY IN A DEMOCRACY. FOR TO FUNCTION WITHOUT ABILITY TO REACH CONSENSUS OTHER OTHERWISE JUST BECOMES EXECUTIVE SEA OTTER BATTLEGROUND ISSUES THAT ARE GET ESPECIALLY NOWHERE. I DON'T WANT A WHOLE. MY COLLEAGUE MAY KNOW THE VICE PRESIDENT PUT. YOU KNOW, I THINK THERE ARE VERY FEW DEBATES ON THE SENATE FLOOR. THE WHOLE LAST YEAR. ON ALMOST ANY ISSUE. THAT BENEFITS NO ONE. DONE FOR MANY BODY DOESN'T ALLOW THE PUBLIC TO MAKE JUDGMENTS ABOUT WHO STAY THINK IS RIGHT OR WRONG. SO I AM I'M OPTIMISTIC THAT IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME. BUT OVER THE YEAR THE WAY WE TREAT EACH OTHER WITH RESPECT AND WE'RE GOING TO ARGUE LIKE L. I'M CONFIDENT THAT KNOW THAT I'VE BEEN THERE. BUT I THINK WE CAN DO IT IN A WAY THAT WE CAN GET THINGS DONE FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THE MIKE ON TAKING THE QUESTION YOU MENTIONED JUST NOW THAT YOU MIGHT KNOW A COUPLE OF WEEKS. >> ASKED WHETHER IT'S MORE IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO GET SOMETHING PASSED IN THE SHORT TIME FRAME LIKE THAT OR WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO WAIT LONGER TO GET MORE BIPARTISAN SUPPORT. I ALSO ASKED THAT ONE OF THE PILLARS IS THE VACCINE FUNDING. WHEN DO YOU THINK ANY AMERICAN WHO WANTS TO GET THE SHOT WILL BE ABLE TO GET THE SHOT. >> TRY TO ANSWER 3 PRESSURE QUESTION IS I HEARD THEM ONE TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. AND I MUST TELL YOU, I'M RELUCTANT TO CHERRY PICK AND TAKE OUT ONE OR 2 ITEMS HERE AND THEN HAVE TO GO THROUGH IT AGAIN. AND THEY BECAUSE THESE ALL ARE KIND OF THEY THEY GO HAND-IN-GLOVE EACH OF THESE ISSUES. NUMBER ONE. NUMBER 2. WE ARE OPTIMISTIC. THAT WE WILL HAVE AN EFFECT C AND IN VERY SHORT ORDER. WE AS YOU KNOW, WE CAME IN OFFICE WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF HOW MUCH VACCINE WAS BEING HELD IN ADVANCE ARE AVAILABLE NOW THAT WE'RE HERE. WE'VE BEEN AROUND A WEEK OR SO. WE NOW HAVE THAT AND WE'VE GOT COMMITMENTS FROM SOME OF THE PRODUCERS THAT THEY WILL, IN FACT PRODUCE MORE VACCINE IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND THEN CONTINUE THAT DOWN THE ROAD. SO I'M QUITE CONFIDENT THAT WE WILL BE IN A POSITION WITHIN THE NEXT 3 WEEKS OR SO TO BE VACCINATING PEOPLE AT THE RANGE OF A MILLION A DAY OR IN AN EXCESS OF THAT THAT IS MY I PROMISE THAT WE WOULD GET AT LEAST A DAY. A 100 MILLION VACCINATIONS. THAT'S NOT PEOPLE BECAUSE SOMETIMES YOU NEED MORE THAN ONE SHOT. THE VACCINATION, BUT A 100,000 A 100 MILLION SHOTS IN PEOPLE'S ARMS OF THE VACCINE. I THINK WITH THE GRACE OF GOD, THE GOODWILL NEIGHBOR IN THE CRICK NOT RISING AS THE OLD SAYING GOES, I THINK WE MADE TO GET THAT 250. FOUND A 1.5 MILLION A DAY RATHER THAN 1 MILLION TODAY. BUT WE HAVE TO MEET THAT GOAL OF A MILLION A DAY AND EVERYTHING POINTS THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE. ENOUGH VACCINE. BE ENOUGH SYRINGES AND ALL THE PARAPHERNALIA NEEDED TO STORE. KEEP INJECT MOVE INTO YOUR ARM. THE VACCINE 3, A NUMBER OF VACCINATE HORSE. PEOPLE ADMINISTERING THE VACCINE, WHICH IS NOT AN EASY TASK OF THOSE WHO HAVE THOSE THOSE FACILITIES. IKE TURNER. SHE HOMES AND HOSPITALS TO HAVE PEOPLE DO IT BUT THEY DON'T HAVE THE CAPACITY TO DO EVERYONE. AND SO I THINK WE'RE GOING TO HAVE. LEANING IN THE AREAS WHERE WE PRODUCE MORE VACCINATE ORDERS. WE FEEL CONFIDENT WE CAN DO THAT. AND THIRDLY, IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE THE 4, THE PLACE, THE FACILITY, THE CIRCUMSTANCE WHERE PEOPLE CAN SHOW UP STAND IN LINE AND GET THEIR VACCINE WITHOUT HAVING TO STAND IN LINE FOR 8 HOURS BEING ABLE TO PICK UP THE PHONE, CALL THE PHARMACY AND GET YOUR NAME ON THE LIST, ET CETERA. ALL THOSE MECHANICAL THINGS. WE'RE REALLY THEY SOUND SIMPLE. BUT THEY'RE ALL CONSEQUENTIAL. WE'RE TRYING TO GET OUT MINIMUM OF A 100 MILLION VACCINATIONS IN A 100 DAYS. MOVE IN THE DIRECTION WHERE WE ARE WELL BEYOND THAT. AND THE NEXT 100 DAYS SO WE CAN GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE'VE REACHED HERD IMMUNITY IN A COUNTRY OF OVER 300 MILLION PEOPLE. TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. ALL I KNOW I THINK WILL BE THIS SPRING. I THINK WE'LL BE ABLE TO DO THAT TO SPRING. BUT IT'S GOING TO BE A LOGISTICAL. CHALLENGE THAT EXCEEDS ANYTHING WE'VE EVER TRIED IN THIS COUNTRY. BUT I THINK WE CAN DO THAT. I FEEL CONFIDENT BY SUMMER. WE'RE GOING TO BE WELL ON OUR WAY TO HEAD IN TOWARD HERD IMMUNITY AND INCREASING THE ACCESS FOR PEOPLE WHO AREN'T ON THE FIRST ON THE LIST ALL THE WAY GOING DOWN TO CHILDREN AND HOW WE DO IT I FEEL GOOD ABOUT WHERE WE'RE GOING. I THINK WE CAN GET IT DONE. AI WEIWEI. I KNOW HE ALWAYS ASK THE TOUGH QUESTIONS AND HE ALWAYS HAS AN EDGE TO THEM. BUT I LIKE HIM ANYWAY. SO GO AHEAD, NATIONAL VENTURE. RUSSIA QUESTION. THANK YOU, MISTER >> WE'LL BE AT THE POINT WHERE THERE ARE A MILLION VACCINES PER DAY. BUT IT SEEMS LIKE I THINK WE'LL GET THERE BEFORE THAT. I SAID I HOPE I MISSPOKE. I HOPE WE'LL BE ABLE TO INCREASE AS WE GO ON TO GET TO THE MILLION 5 TODAY. THAT'S MY EX. I HOPE. >> MY THE FOLLOW-UP TO THAT WOULD BE BY NOW YOU'RE PRESIDENT. YOU'RE SAYING THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO TO CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OF THE PANDEMIC IN THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS. HAPPENED TO 2 MONTHS AGO WHEN YOU WERE TALKING DECLARED OF LEE ABOUT I'M GOING TO SHUT DOWN THE VIRUS. >> I'M GOING TO SHUT DOWN THE VIRUS, BUT NOT I NEVER SAID I DO IN 2 MONTHS. I SAID IT TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET HERE. IT'S GOING TAKE A LONG TIME TO BEAT IT. AND SO WE HAVE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE WHO HAVE THE VIRUS. WE'RE JUST FOR THE FIRST DAY, I THINK CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, I'VE BEEN DOING OTHER THINGS THIS MORNING SPEAK WITH FOREIGN LEADERS. BUT ONE OF THE THINGS I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST DAYS THAT THE NUMBERS ACTUALLY COME DOWN. THE NUMBER OF DEATHS AND THE NUMBER ON A DAILY BASIS AND THE NUMBER OF HOSPITALIZATIONS CENTER. IT'S GOING TO TAKE TIME. IT'S GOING TO TAKE A HECK OF A LOT OF TIME AND WE STILL HAVE, AS DOCTOR FAUCI CONSTANTLY POINTS OUT. IT'S ONE THING WHEN WE HAVE MASK. HOW CAN I SAY POLITELY MASS DISREGARD OF THE WARNINGS ABOUT NOT WEARING MASK AND WEARING MASK AND AND SOCIAL DISTANCE EVEN FAILURE TO SOCIAL DISTANCE AND PEOPLE GETTING TOGETHER AND HOLIDAYS IN WAYS THAT WERE RECOMMENDED THAT CENTER. WE SEEK FIRST TO YOU HAPPENS IS WE SEE THE NUMBER OF INFECTIONS GO OUT AND YOU SEE THE HOSPITALIZATIONS GO UP, THEN YOU SEE THE UP. AND SO WE'RE WE'RE IN THIS FOR A WHILE. WE WERE WHAT WE NOW 410 1000 DEATHS AND THERE'S GOING TO BE MORE PREDICTION. AS I SAID FROM VERY BEGINNING TO GET IN HERE AS AFTER BEING SWORN IN WAS THE PREDICTIONS WERE WE'RE GOING TO SEE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN A TOTAL OF 600,660 1000. BEFORE WE BEGAN TO TURN THE CORNER IN A MAJOR WAY. SO AND AGAIN, REMEMBER THE VACCINE. MOST OF THE PEOPLE TAKING THE VACCINE ADDRESS SIGNIFICANT NUMBER REQUIRE 2 SHOTS AND THEIR AVERAGE OF 3 WEEKS APART AND IT TAKES TIME FOR IT TO BE SURE THAT YOU'RE YOU GET TO THAT 95%. I'M SURE IT'S RIGHT. AND SO IT'S BEGINNING TO MOVE. BUT I'M CONFIDENT WE WILL BEAT THIS. WE WILL BEAT THIS, BUT WE'RE STILL GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT THIS IN THE SUMMER. WE'RE STILL GOING TO BE DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE IN THE EARLY FALL. LAST POINT I'LL MAKE. AND I KNOW YOU'RE TIRED. HEAR ME SAY. PARTICULARLY YOU MAY BE TIRED. HE SAID AND THAT IS THAT. WE WEAR MASKS. BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF APRIL. THE EXPERTS TELL US WE CAN SAY 50,000 LIVES 50,000 PEOPLE OTHERWISE WOULD DIE. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. >> AND EVERYONE ELSE IN MARCH. YOU'RE WATCHING NBC NEWS NOW POWER TO THE PEN. PRESIDEN
