拜登极待改革行动

当拜登总统从欧洲返回白宫时，发现维吉尼亚州州长被共和党籍的杨肯夺走州长保座 ，这正意味看民主党之政治危机已经呈现 。

目前美国国内外正在面临令人棘手之困境，首先是国内経済物价上涨通货膨胀问题 ，一般民生用品从食物、 汽油 、用品都在不断涨价 ，薪资平民家庭苦不堪言 。

国会两党对立严重， 包括民主党也未能取得一致立场， 以致拜登上台已十个多月，还未能通过有关基建社会救助等之预算方案， 对现任政府之施政是大的阻碍和打击。

在外交上， 和中国大陆之全面对抗， 整个台海和南海情势丕变 ，并和澳洲英国进行军事结盟， 利用台湾问题掀起纠纷， 如果处理不当将会引发战争。

拜登总统再度强调 ，人民需要我们有所行动， 这也是需要不断努力，呼吁我们民主党人士支持通过基建法案。

我们要呼吁政府要正视目前之困境 ，也决不是通过法案就可以解决民生和民怨问题， 如果面对中美两大国之纷争和对峙， 可能是最紧急和必须之问题 。

在此疫情稍缓之时， 全球各国应该共同努力来改善生活 ，而不要再做无谓的对抗了。

Challenges For The Biden Administration

When President Biden came back home from Europe he received a lot of bad news. The Republican’s Glenn Youngkin won the seat of Governor of Virginia. In New Jersey, democratic governor Murphy won the seat very narrowly and defeated Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli.

President Biden said that, “People wanted us to get things done and that is why I am continuing to push very hard for the Democratic Party to move along and pass my infrastructure bill and my Build Back Better bill.”

Biden has for months been working for his legislative agenda as his party has failed to pass a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure plan and a $1.75 trillion social safety net expansion bill.

Today most people are facing difficulties related to the rising prices of food, gas and general goods.

Overseas we are still having so many issues with China and many other countries including the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait.

If the current administration cannot solve the problems here and overseas, this is going to be very serious for the Democratic Party in the mid-term elections next year.

When President Biden reached a full year into his presidency, he already has felt a new sense of urgency to pass his agenda and provide direction for the Democratic Party.
