John,

This week marks President Biden’s 100th day in office. Join us on Twitter tonight as we live tweet President Biden’s Joint Address to Congress where he will share his vision for addressing the challenges and opportunities of this historic moment. 

In November, we polled young progressive voters in battleground states on what they wanted to see from the Biden Administration in the first 100 days. Here’s what they said:

A bar graph of a poll listing the top priorities for young voters in Biden’s first 100 days 49% Ending border separation and reuniting families 36% Increasing taxes on corporations and the wealthy 35% Canceling rent payments during the pandemic 35% Ending gerrymandering and implementing fair redistricting 30% Canceling student loan debtRead the full poll results here

President Biden has addressed some of these issues like continuing the moratorium on eviction and  supporting legislation to end gerrymandering. He has also made gains on other issues such as COVID-19, climate justice, gun violence prevention, and more. However, there is still much work to be done to address the most pressing issues facing young people like student debt cancelation, free college, ending the filibuster, a $15 minimum wage, passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, and more. 

The youth vote launched President Biden and Vice President Harris to victory and we will keep pushing these policies until they are passed. So, join us on social tonight and make your voice heard!
