On December 10, President Joe Biden urged President-elect Donald Trump to abandon Project 2025, a controversial plan to overhaul the U.S. government. The project calls for removing environmental regulations and limiting diversity programs in the workplace, claiming these policies are illegal. Speaking at the Brookings Institution, Biden shared that his administration’s economic strategy focuses on growing the economy by supporting the middle class. He acknowledged that inflation and high housing costs continue to challenge American workers. Biden pointed out the creation of 16 million jobs, the lowest unemployment in 50 years, and the smallest racial wealth gap in two decades as key accomplishments of his presidency.
