What to Know

Woke is now defined in this dictionary as “aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice),” and identified as U.S. slang. It originated in African American English and gained more widespread use beginning in 2014 as part of the Black Lives Matter movement. By the end of that same decade it was also being applied by some as a general pejorative for anyone who is or appears to be politically left-leaning.

WASHINGTON — In his first address from the Oval Office, President Joe Biden on Friday night commended House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on the bipartisan budget and debt ceiling agreement passed by Congress this week.

The 12-minute speech centered on how the bipartisan effort "averted economic crisis," with a prominent nod to Republican negotiators led by McCarthy, R-Calif.

"Our teams we were able to get along, get things done, were straightforward with one another, completely honest with one another, respectful with one another. Both sides operated in good faith. Both sides kept their word," Biden said of the bill that will cut spending and extend the debt ceiling for two years.

He also extended commendations to other congressional leaders in both parties, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.

"Passing this budget agreement was critical. The stakes could not have been higher," Biden said.

"No one got everything they wanted but the American people got what they needed. We averted an economic crisis and an economic collapse."

The Bipartisan Budget Agreement passed by a final vote of 63-36 in the Senate on Thursday night.

“Senators from both parties voted to protect the hard-earned economic progress we have made and prevent a first-ever default by the United States,” Biden said in a statement overnight.

Its companion bill in the Republican-led House, the Fiscal Responsibility Act, passed by a final vote of 314-117 on Wednesday.

Every child, no matter who they are, how much their families earn, or where they live, should have access to a high-quality public education.

Justice and Equality for All

We believe all men and women deserve respect and should be treated equally under the law regardless of age, sex, race, religion or sexual preference.

Maximize Voter Participation

 The right to vote is at the heart of our national vision. It is our core principle to maximize voter participation for all Americans and to work against voter suppression.

Protect Social Security/Medicare

 We believe every American deserves a secure, healthy, and dignified retirement. America should honor the promise of Social Security and Medicare.
