From the Majority Leader Press Shop:

This week marks President Biden’s address to a joint session of Congress and the first 100 days of his presidency, and the American people are liking what they’re seeing. Two recent polls found broad support for the President’s work to address the COVID-19 pandemic through the American Rescue Plan and his efforts to give our communities the tools they need to build back better.
