WASHINGTON — The Democratic Lieutenant Governors Association’s Chair, Michigan Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II, released the following statement regarding President Biden’s Executive Orders announced on the first day of his Presidency.
“After four years of chaos, our nation can breathe a collective sigh of relief with the inauguration of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris,” Lt. Governor Gilchrist said. “As our nation is in the midst of some of our greatest challenges, we know that President Biden will meet these challenges head-on with the honor, integrity, and trust that we deserve from our nation’s highest office.
