BlackPR Wire Press Release
(Black PR Wire) WASHINGTON, D.C.— The National Black Caucus of State Legislators NBCSL) recognizes yesterday as a monumental moment in political history in the wake of President Joseph R. Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 presidential election.
For nearly 50 years, NBCSL has focused on critical issues affecting Black Americans and other marginalized communities. Several of NBCSL’s resolutions aimed to improve the health, well-being and prosperity of Black communities were addressed by the Biden-Harris Administration, including ending racial health disparities in response to COVID-19 (Resolution HHS-21-04), working to ensure medications remain available to patients without creating greater health and health care disparities (HHS-24-28), and easing the burden student loan debt on American borrowers (EDU-20-28). As the Biden-Harris Administration worked to build a better life for Americans, these NBCSL resolutions influenced the signing of 10 Executive orders relating to ending the racial disparities stemming from COVID-19, the redesigning of Medicare Part D with the goal to reduce enrollee out-of-pocket spending by over $7 billion annually, and the cancelling of student debt of more than 30 million borrowers. As a Bipartisan organization, NBCSL prides itself on establishing effective working relationships with presidential administrations spanning decades and remains committed to collaborating with the Biden-Harris Administration and those ahead. As America moves forward in its 2024 presidential election process, NBCSL encourages all Americans, regardless of their party affiliation, to participate in the democratic process and vote.
