00:00In addition to medical debt, we are also addressing the issue of student loan debt.
00:10So far, we have forgiven student loan debt for nearly 5 million Americans, and twice
00:18as much for our public servants, including our teachers, our nurses, and firefighters.
00:28So you know I'm here. I stand here as we are 137 days away from the most important
00:38election of our lifetime. And there is a very clear contrast between who we have looked
00:47out for and who the last administration looked out for. Whereas the last administration gave
00:55tax cuts to billionaires, we gave tax cuts to families with children through the Child
01:06Tax Credit. And cut the rate of child poverty in half when we did it. We are also proud
01:21to lead the most pro-union administration in the history of America. We expanded the
01:34power of OSHA to make workplaces safer. As head of the White House Labor Task Force,
01:45I have led our work to eliminate barriers to organizing in both public and private sectors.
01:52And we did the long overdue work to protect the pension plans of now more than 1 million
02:06Americans, including thousands of Unite Care members and retirees.
