Biden-Harris Administration is Supporting America’s Veterans and Their Families, Caregivers, and Survivors
<https://mcusercontent.com/f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d/images/ec6656f9-a33b-f69a-3621-2dc7b8ee522c.png>
President Biden believes we have a sacred obligation to our nation’s veterans and their families. Since taking office, President Biden has signed into law over 25 bipartisan bills that
address some of the most important issues facing veterans today, including the landmark PACT Act to address toxic exposures. On education, housing, and health care, the Administration
and Congress have worked together to connect veterans and their families to much-needed resources. As we mark this Veterans Day and honor all those who have worn the uniform of the
United States, the Administration is continuing to support our veterans by:
* Delivering timely, high quality benefits and services.
* Addressing toxic exposures.
* Reducing veteran suicide.
* Ending veteran homelessness.
* Ending veteran homelessness.
* Removing barriers to services for LGBTQ+ veterans.
* Protecting service member and veteran education benefits.
* Protecting veterans and military families from fraud.
* Connecting more veterans with resources for training and employment.
* Expanding services for veteran caregivers.
* Helping educators support military-connected students.
* Supporting children living with wounded, ill, or injured service members and veterans.
* Ending hunger and promoting healthier living.
* Helping heal trauma.
A Proclamation On Veterans Day
Today, we honor generations of patriots who have earned the title of “American veteran” — a badge of courage that unites the finest group of former service members the world has ever
known. With their selfless sacrifice, our Armed Forces have forged and defended the very idea of America — a promise of freedom and equality, democracy and justice, possibility and
hope. We owe them an incredible debt that can never be fully repaid.
Veterans Day is personal to the Biden family. We have felt the pride that comes with seeing your child wear the uniform of the United States and the pain of long deployments far from
home. We know what it is like to pray every day for the safe return of someone you love. And we have stood in awe of our veterans who carry the lasting wounds of war. We pledge to continue
the work to return our prisoners of war and those still missing in action and commit to remember the sacrifice of the families of those who have served. As both a father and Commander
in Chief, I firmly believe that our one truly sacred obligation as a Nation is to properly prepare and equip the brave women and men we send into harm’s way and to care for them and
their loved ones when they return home.
We honor generations of patriots who have earned the title of “American veteran” — a badge of courage that unites the finest group of former service members the world has ever known.
With their selfless sacrifice, our Armed Forces have forged and defended the very idea of America — a promise of freedom and equality, democracy and justice, possibility and hope. We
owe them an incredible debt that can never be fully repaid.

President Biden Announces New Initiatives at COP27 to Strengthen U.S. Leadership in Tackling Climate Change
<https://mcusercontent.com/f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d/images/38cde602-cbf1-0f35-3beb-4f84f49546a4.png>
This week at the 27th U.N. Climate Conference (COP27), President Biden announced new initiatives to strengthen U.S. leadership tackling the climate crisis and galvanize global action
and commitments. President Biden will demonstrate that the United States is following through on its existing commitments and initiatives while also accelerating new and expanded domestic
and global efforts. As President Biden said at last year’s COP in Glasgow, this is a decisive decade – and the United States is acting to lead a clean energy future that leverages market
forces, technological innovation, and investments to tackle the climate crisis. The initiatives the President is announcing today also reflect the global imperative to support vulnerable
developing country partners in building resilience to a changing climate, helping them cope with a problem they did not create.
In less than 18 months, President Biden has renewed United States leadership in the fight against climate change. The President is delivering on his Day One promises, positioning the
United States to achieve our ambitious climate goals. President Biden has spearheaded the most significant domestic climate action in U.S. history, including passing the historic Inflation
Reduction Act, signing the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, ratifying the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, spurring a new era of clean American manufacturing, enhancing energy
security at home and abroad, and driving down the costs of clean energy for consumers in the U.S. and around the world.
These efforts reflect President Biden’s belief that climate security, energy security, food security, and water security go hand-in-hand. As Russia’s unjust war in Ukraine disrupts energy
markets, strains economies with rising prices, and threatens vulnerable countries with severe food shortages, efforts to accelerate climate action, growing clean energy economies, climate
smart agriculture, and global resilience have become all the more urgent.

Statement by President Biden on the October Consumer Price Index Report
<https://mcusercontent.com/f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d/images/0d883c65-57bc-8290-3ec1-42de4174eb3f.png>
This week's report shows that we are making progress on bringing inflation down, without giving up all of the progress we have made on economic growth and job creation. My economic plan
is showing results, and the American people can see that we are facing global economic challenges from a position of strength.
It will take time to get inflation back to normal levels – and we could see setbacks along the way – but we will keep at it and help families with the cost of living. Americans are already
paying around $1.20 less per gallon of gas than this summer. This week's report shows a much-needed break in inflation at the grocery store as we head into the holidays. And millions
of Americans shopping for health insurance plans are continuing to save $800 per year, thanks to legislation I’ve signed into law. In less than eight weeks, my plan to bring down prescription
drug prices and energy costs goes into effect.
It has been a hard two years to recover from where things were in January 2021. But our economy has reopened, new jobs are being created, new businesses are growing, and now, we are
seeing progress in getting inflation under control – with additional measures taking effect soon.
I will work with anyone on ideas to provide more breathing room to middle-class and working families. And I will oppose any effort to undo my agenda or to make inflation worse. We are
on the right path – we need to keep moving forward to build an economy from the bottom up and the middle out.

Statement by White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on the District Court’s Ruling on the Biden-Harris Administration’s Student Debt Relief Program
We strongly disagree with the District Court’s ruling on our student debt relief program and the Department of Justice has filed an appeal.
The President and this Administration are determined to help working and middle-class Americans get back on their feet, while our opponents – backed by extreme Republican special interests
– sued to block millions of Americans from getting much-needed relief.
For the 26 million borrowers who have already given the Department of Education the necessary information to be considered for debt relief – 16 million of whom have already been approved
for relief – the Department will hold onto their information so it can quickly process their relief once we prevail in court.
We will never stop fighting for hardworking Americans most in need – no matter how many roadblocks our opponents and special interests try to put in our way.
President Biden's Leadership to Tackle the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad Galvanizes Unprecedented Momentum at State of U.N. Climate Conference (COP27)
<https://mcusercontent.com/f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d/images/87861c12-e4b4-b6df-684a-10d9a3328152.png>
In less than two years since taking office, President Biden’s leadership to tackle the climate crisis has boosted U.S. manufacturing and deployment of cost-cutting clean energy technologies,
put the country on a durable path aligned with limiting warming to 1.5 °C, and galvanized global action by partners and the private sector – building unprecedented momentum towards
achieving critical climate goals and strengthening global resilience.
As more than a hundred countries gather for the 27th Conference of the Parties to the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP27) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, the United States
will work with partners to enhance global ambition to accelerate growth of the clean energy economy, avert the most catastrophic impacts of climate change, and help lower- and middle-
income countries build resilience to climate impacts.
The President has pledged to work with Congress to increase U.S. international climate finance to over $11 billion a year – which would make the United States the single largest contributor
of climate finance. These actions are key to strengthening global security – including energy, water, food, and health security – which has been made all the more urgent following Russia’s
war against Ukraine that has disrupted energy markets, strained economies with rising prices, and threatened vulnerable countries with severe food shortages.
At COP27 and beyond, the United States will encourage countries – particularly major economies – and the private sector to not only implement existing commitments and goals, but to also
enhance commitments and goals to help close the gap between current pledges and what the latest science tells us is urgently needed.

Biden-Harris Administration Announces Roadmap for Nature-Based Solutions to Fight Climate Change, Strengthen Communities, and Support Local Economies
<https://mcusercontent.com/f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d/images/6da39f67-392f-b326-d9f4-0765a18a1181.png>
This week at COP27 in Egypt, the Biden-Harris Administration released the Nature-Based Solutions Roadmap, an outline of strategic recommendations to put America on a path that will unlock
the full potential of nature-based solutions to address climate change, nature loss, and inequity. This marks the first time the U.S. has developed a strategy to scale up nature-based
solutions.
To demonstrate how the U.S. is already taking action, the Administration is also announcing new and recent interagency commitments aligned with the roadmap including: agency actions
to ensure over $25 billion in infrastructure and climate funding can support nature-based solutions; a new guide for bringing the power of nature to maximize the value and resilience
of military bases; and a new technical working group to better account for nature-based options in benefit cost analysis – a powerful tool for federal decisions.
Nature-based solutions are actions to protect, sustainably manage, or restore natural or modified ecosystems as solutions to societal challenges, like fighting climate change. John Podesta,
Senior Advisor to the President for Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation, and chair of President Biden’s National Climate Task Force, unveiled the roadmap at the opening of the
U.S. Center at United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s Conference of the Parties (COP27). Mr. Podesta encouraged other nations to join the U.S. by taking bold action
to invest in nature and its many benefits.
Nature-Based Solutions Roadmap: Five Strategic Areas for Action
1. Update Policies to Accelerate Nature-Based Solutions
2. Unlock Funding for Nature-Based Solutions
3. Lead with Federal Facilities and Assets
4. Train the Nature-Based Solutions Workforce
5. Prioritize Research, Innovation, Knowledge, and Adaptive Learning
Building On the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act
The roadmap and aligned actions build on major investments made through President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act. These laws made unprecedented investments
in nature-based solutions, placing forests, agricultural lands and coastal wetlands front and center in the climate fight.
Driving Global Action
President Biden is committed to unlocking the full potential of nature-based solutions for achieving climate goals and combatting nature loss, especially for communities that are disproportionately
impacted by climate change and environmental injustices.

The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights Seeks Applicants Bipartisan State Advisory Committees
The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights seeks applicants for its bipartisan State Advisory Committees, who serve as the Commission’s eyes and ears on the ground across the country, investigating
and researching civil rights issues specific to their jurisdiction. The Commission is especially interested in appointing individuals who have a demonstrated interest in civil rights,
voting rights, and the equal protection of the law in the administration of justice. Applicants do not have to be attorneys. Rather we seek individuals who can approach these issues
from diverse personal and professional experiences and from various points of view.
Interested applicants can learn more about the Commission’s Advisory Committees on the Commission’s website, www.usccr.gov <https://whitehouse.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f620288bb41dd81f9c715
ef4d&id=600532566c&e=1b00b68fe6> . Detailed information about the applications is available at https://lnkd.in/dF6tYWk <https://whitehouse.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f620288bb41dd81f9c715ef4d
&id=54fe1b5e22&e=1b00b68fe6> . Candidates may submit their applications via the online application portal at https://lnkd.in/dPH-859 <https://whitehouse.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f620288bb41
dd81f9c715ef4d&id=06328b9fc5&e=1b00b68fe6> . The Commission is actively recruiting for members from RHODE ISLAND, NEW JERSEY, NEW HAMPSHIRE, MICHIGAN, ALASKA & NORTH DAKOTA.
Advisory Committees have recently examined voting rights, civil rights impacts of education funding, seclusion and restraint of students with disabilities, women’s prisons, civil rights
impacts of civil asset forfeiture, immigration issues, policing practices, human trafficking, fair housing, civil rights issues related to payday lending, and criminal justice issues,
including civil rights implications of solitary confinement policies in prisons and disparate incarceration rates, among other topics. Advisory Committee reports may lead to policy
changes at the national, state or local levels.
Recent examples where reports were cited as a source for such changes include reports calling for digital equity in Maine, excessive use of force by law enforcement in Washington State,
and remote learning and equity in education in Nevada . In addition to legislators, civil rights advocates frequently use Advisory Committee reports as a resource to make change on
national, state and local levels.
