En muy poco tiempo, ese liderazgo ya ha dado a las familias de todo el pa\u00eds un motivo de celebraci\u00f3n: cheques en los bolsillos de los estadounidenses, inyecciones de vacunas en los brazos de los estadounidenses, ni\u00f1os de vuelta en sus aulas y carteles de &quot;abierto&quot; restaurados en las ventanas de los negocios en todo Estados Unidos. Hay luz al final del t\u00fanel, y esa luz es cada d\u00eda m\u00e1s brillante.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPero como ha dejado en claro el presidente Biden, no estamos contentos con solo minimizar el da\u00f1o que infligi\u00f3 la pandemia, buscamos implementar una nueva visi\u00f3n que cree oportunidades, prosperidad y justicia para todos. Todos los estadounidenses, independientemente del color de su piel, su c\u00f3digo postal o su estado laboral actual, necesitan acceso a un trabajo confiable y bien remunerado; una casa que puedan pagar; cuidado infantil en el que conf\u00edan; agua potable segura; aire limpio; y atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica de alta calidad. Y tenemos que dejar de desperdiciar dinero pagando los impactos cada vez m\u00e1s severos de la crisis clim\u00e1tica en lugar de crear empleos para resolverla. Continuar\u00e9 trabajando junto con mis colegas y la administraci\u00f3n de Biden para avanzar en la <i>Plan de empleo estadounidense<\/i> y el <i>Plan de Familias Americanas.<\/i> El <i>Plan de empleo estadounidense<\/i> es, como dijo el presidente Biden, un s\u00f3lido &#039;proyecto de cuello azul para reconstruir Estados Unidos&#039;. Es absolutamente fundamental que reconstruyamos la infraestructura de los Estados Unidos, desde las carreteras hasta la banda ancha, y reconstruyamos el sistema energ\u00e9tico de los Estados Unidos para respaldar el camino hacia la energ\u00eda renovable 100%. Y el <i>Plan de familias americanas<\/i> es igualmente importante, fortalecer la base para que las familias estadounidenses prosperen al mejorar la educaci\u00f3n, el cuidado infantil y la atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica. Como parte de esa mejora en el cuidado de la salud, debemos terminar con el aumento de precios de los medicamentos, permitiendo que Medicare negocie el precio de los medicamentos, o mejor a\u00fan, pasando mi <i>Ley para poner fin a la especulaci\u00f3n de precios de medicamentos recetados <\/i>eso reducir\u00e1 los precios de sus medicamentos recetados, ya sea que sea parte de Medicare o no.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEsta noche, cre\u00ed que el presidente Biden observar\u00eda que reconstruir mejor incluye la reforma de la justicia penal y poner fin a la discriminaci\u00f3n contra los estadounidenses LGBTQ, y el presidente no me decepcion\u00f3. Agradezco que mencionara la importancia de mi <i>Ley de Igualdad<\/i> poner fin por completo a la discriminaci\u00f3n contra los estadounidenses LGBTQ sobre la base firme de la Declaraci\u00f3n de 1964 <i>Ley de Derechos Civiles<\/i>. Y esta noche, los ni\u00f1os transg\u00e9nero, que a menudo se enfrentan a una tremenda intimidaci\u00f3n y adversidad, escucharon a un presidente decirles directamente que ahora tienen un presidente que &#039;les cubre las espaldas&#039;.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTodas estas esperanzas y promesas dependen de un gobierno que trabaje para la gente y no para los poderosos. El presidente se\u00f1al\u00f3 que tenemos que defender el derecho al voto y aprobar la <i>Ley para el Pueblo<\/i> Estoy liderando en el Senado. Esta ley de derecho al voto evita que los multimillonarios compren elecciones; asegura que los votantes elijan a sus pol\u00edticos y no al rev\u00e9s; y protege la libertad y el derecho de cada estadounidense a emitir su voto, un derecho que est\u00e1 bajo un ataque enorme en docenas de estados en todo el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComo se\u00f1al\u00f3 el presidente, lograr estos importantes objetivos, desde el <i>Plan de empleo estadounidense <\/i>y <i>Plan de familias americanas<\/i>, hacia <i>Ley de Igualdad<\/i>, hacia <i>Ley para el Pueblo<\/i>\u2014requiere que el Congreso act\u00fae. Espero que todos los senadores trabajen juntos para hacer realidad esta poderosa visi\u00f3n para Estados Unidos\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Junto al Senador Merkley como sus invitados virtuales esta noche estuvieron Nancy Haque, Directora Ejecutiva de Basic Rights Oregon (BRO), y Kieran Chase, Gerente del Programa de Justicia Transg\u00e9nero de BRO. Haque y Chase han realizado contribuciones significativas al movimiento LGBTQ en Oreg\u00f3n, centr\u00e1ndose en la construcci\u00f3n de comunidades inclusivas y s\u00f3lidas y apoyando a los j\u00f3venes, inmigrantes, refugiados, negros, morenos y transg\u00e9nero de Oreg\u00f3n tanto en zonas rurales como urbanas del estado.
