Some of Joe Biden’s early key accomplishments as President of the United States included:

COVID-19 Response

The Biden administration initiated a comprehensive plan to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, including the distribution of vaccines, increased testing, and the passage of the American Rescue Plan Act, which provided financial relief to individuals, businesses, and state and local governments.

Infrastructure Investment

President Biden proposed and signed into law the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, a substantial bipartisan infrastructure bill that aimed to modernize and improve the country's infrastructure, including transportation, broadband, and clean energy.

Climate Change Action

The administration rejoined the Paris Agreement, committing the United States to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and introduced ambitious climate initiatives, such as the Clean Energy for America Plan, designed to accelerate the transition to clean energy.

Racial and Gender Equity

President Biden took steps to address racial and gender disparities, including issuing executive orders to advance racial and gender equity and the signing of legislation to make Juneteenth a federal holiday.

Immigration Reform

While progress in this area faced challenges, the Biden administration took steps to reverse some immigration policies from the previous administration, including ending the "Remain in Mexico" policy and introducing immigration reform legislation.

Economic Recovery

In addition to the COVID-19 relief bill, President Biden proposed the American Jobs Plan and the American Families Plan, which outlined investments in areas like education, childcare, and healthcare, with the goal of supporting economic recovery and American families.
