  1. Fun fact: The PACT Act, which President Biden signed into law in August 2022, is the most significant expansion of benefits and services for toxin-exposed veterans in over three decades. The the PACT Act aims to deliver timely benefits and services to veterans across all generations who have been impacted by toxic exposures during their military service. Despite its overwhelming support amongst the American people, getting the PACT Act passed in Congress proved to be an uphill battle. Republicans in CongressLied repeatedly about the law and voted against it, before the pressure ramped up against them. In a significant milestone for veterans' support, President Biden announced today that more than 1 million PACT Act-related claims have been granted. This achievement means that over 888,000 veterans and survivors in all 50 states and U.S. territories are now receiving new service-connected disability benefits. President Biden touted the milestone during a speech before veterans in New Hampshire on Tuesday. “We can never fully thank you for all the sacrifices you’ve made,” Biden said to the veterans and their families. “In America, we leave no veteran behind. That’s our motto.”

  2. In President Biden’s first year in office, his administration has implemented an industrial strategy to revitalize domestic manufacturing, create good-paying American jobs, strengthen American supply chains, and accelerate the industries of the future. These policies have spurred an historic recovery in manufacturing, adding 642,000 manufacturing jobs since 2021. Companies are investing in America again, bringing good-paying manufacturing jobs back home. The construction of new manufacturing facilities has increased 116 percent over last year. President Biden signed into law the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022, which will build on this progress, making historic investments that will poise U.S. workers, communities, and businesses to win the race for the 21st century. It will strengthen American manufacturing, supply chains, and national security, and invest in research and development, science and technology, and the workforce of the future to keep the US the leader in the industries of tomorrow, including nanotechnology, clean energy, quantum computing, and artificial intelligence.  The CHIPS and Science Act makes the smart investments so that Americans can compete in and win the future.
