2022 State of the Union address: on Crime


Joe Biden: DOJ to name a chief prosecutor for pandemic fraud

The previous Administration not only ballooned the deficit with tax cuts for the very wealthy and corporations, it undermined the watchdogs whose job was to keep pandemic relief funds from being wasted. But in my administration, the watchdogs have been welcomed back. We're going after the criminals who stole billions in relief money meant for small businesses and millions of Americans. And tonight, I'm announcing that the Justice Department will name a chief prosecutor for pandemic fraud.

Joe Biden: We don't have to choose between safety and equal justice

Let's not abandon our streets. Or choose between safety and equal justice. Let's come together to protect our communities, restore trust, and hold law enforcement accountable. That's why the Justice Department required body cameras, banned chokeholds, and restricted no-knock warrants for its officers. We should all agree: The answer is not to Defund the police. The answer is to FUND the police with the resources and training they need to protect our communities.
