End Citizens United (ECU) and Let America Vote (LAV) President Tiffany Muller released the following statement on Vice President Biden’s victory tonight in the presidential debate:
“Vice President Joe Biden made his case to voters tonight and proved that he’s the only candidate who has dedicated his career to fighting to make government work better for the American people. Meanwhile, Donald Trump once again demonstrated that he views the presidency as nothing more than an opportunity to wield power over others and enrich himself in the process.
“Throughout the last four years, Donald Trump bilked the taxpayers to enrich himself, his family, and his corporate special interest buddies. He cut taxes and created loopholes for big donors and corporations, leaving the other 99 percent of Americans behind. Joe Biden knows that Washington should work for the people, and it’s why his administration will make anti-corruption, voting rights, and government reforms a first priority.
“Healthcare, the economy, and our democracy are all on the ballot this November. Trump even went as far as confirming his plans to rig the system to take away healthcare from millions of Americans in today’s leaked 60 Minutes interview. Unlike the president, Joe Biden has demonstrated that he understands and cares about the concerns of the American people. We’re proud to stand with Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Kamala Harris, who will restore the soul of our nation and the integrity of our democracy.”
