美国总统拜登关于美国救援计划的讲话
2021年2月27日
Good morning, folks. For a few weeks now, an overwhelming percentage of the American public has made it clear that they support my American Rescue Plan. And the House of Representatives took the first step toward making it a reality.
大家早上好。几周来,绝大多数美国公众明确表示他们支持我的美国救援计划。众议院朝着实现这一目标迈出了第一步。
And I want to thank – and I called her just a few moments ago – Nancy Pelosi for her extraordinary – Speaker Pelosi – for her extraordinary leadership and all those who supported our plan.
我想感谢南希·佩洛西,我刚刚给她打过电话,感谢她非凡的领导力和所有支持我们计划的人。
And with their vote, we are one step closer to vaccinating the nation. We are one step closer to putting $1,400 in the pockets of Americans. We are one step closer to extending unemployment benefits for millions of Americans who are shortly going to lose them.
有了他们的投票,我们离为国家接种疫苗又近了一步。我们离把1400美元存入美国人的口袋又近了一步。我们离为即将失去失业救济金的数百万美国人提供失业救济金又近了一步。
We’re one step closer to helping millions of Americans feed their families and keep a roof over their head. We’re one step closer to getting our kids safely back in school. And we’re one step closer to getting state and local governments the money they need to prevent massive layoffs for essential workers.
我们离帮助数百万美国人养家糊口和维持栖身之所又近了一步。我们离让孩子安全返校又近了一步。我们离让州和地方政府获得防止基本工人大规模裁员所需的资金又近了一步。
Now – now the bill moves to the United States Senate where I hope it will receive quick action. I have – we have no time to waste.
现在——现在该法案已提交美国参议院,我希望它能迅速采取行动。我们没有时间可以浪费。
If we act now – decisively, quickly, and boldly – we can finally get ahead of this virus. We can finally get our economy moving again.
如果我们现在采取行动——果断、迅速、大胆地采取行动——我们最终可以领先于这种病毒。我们可以最终让我们的经济再次运转起来。
And the people of this country have suffered far too much for too long. We need to relieve that suffering. The American Rescue Plan does just that: It relieves the suffering. And it’s time to act.
这个国家的人民遭受的痛苦太久了。我们需要减轻这种痛苦。美国救援计划的目的就是要减轻痛苦。是时候采取行动了。
I thank you all for being here. I appreciate it.
我感谢大家来到这里。谢谢。 |
