Through the American Rescue Act, quickly provided $1.9 trillion in relief to American businesses and citizens;

Restored funding to certain veteran programs, including mental health programs;

Issued orders making American supply chains less reliant on foreign companies;

Ordered political appointees to take an ethics pledge;

Released his 2021 tax returns for public review;

Ordered the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to improve fuel emission standards with the goal of rapidly increasing the percentage of electric vehicles on our roads to 50%;
