He will also highlight his accomplishments during his first year of office, senior administration officials said to reporters during a briefing call Monday.
Although they did not say whether the president will mention “inflation,” an important issue for American voters, one official stated that the president will address “price rises” that have “become entrenched” in the economy and “eat away” at families’ budgets. Later, a White House press secretary stated that the president would “absolutely” refer to inflation directly.
With just months to go before the midterm elections, it’s not clear when or how Congress will act on President Trump’s domestic spending and tax agenda. After Democratic Senator Joe Manchin, West Virginia pulled support, the proposal fell apart in December. The president will address the nation and “make it clear that there’s more work to be done, that there’s more work to rebuilding the economy towards resilience, security and sustainability.”
One official stated that the president will outline tomorrow how his plan, which he has put forward, lowers the cost of families and can reduce the deficit. It’s up to Congress to act. It’s time for Congress now to pass legislation that addresses the core issues facing families.
Administration officials claimed that addressing these issues, such as child care, family, medical leave and energy costs, would reduce costs for families.
According to officials, the president will also focus on strengthening supply chains, moving goods quicker and cheaper, encouraging fair competition, and eliminating barriers to high-paying jobs. As one senior administration official put it, he will talk about the “emerging manufacturing revival”. He will also discuss housing and make higher education more affordable. The president will outline plans to ensure that corporations and wealthy Americans pay their fair share, as one official stated.
He will also promote the American Rescue Plan and his infrastructure law. They also announced the plans of the administration for anyone who wishes to work to be in a position to secure a job of high quality.
One official said that the president was proud of the progress made by the administration to date and would continue to build upon it.
