Governor Josh Shapiro

And I look forward to being able to work with many of you and talk with many of you over the coming weeks, months, and years. Thank you for what you do.

All right. Thank you, Ben. And I'm always inspired when I hear my fellow governors. And these are just a small sampling. I believe that this is the new leadership that our country needs is among the ranks of our governors. And they're extraordinary leaders really in there fighting the fight right now, not just talking about or pontificating about it. I'll tell you a couple of things.

Donald Trump killed a lot of things. What he killed was killing our economy. He's killing education. He's killing health care. But you know what? He also killed complacency. I don't think there's an American alive right now who's watching what is unfolding over these last 100 days and there's 1,362 more to go. that are feeling complacent or apathetic and gonna sit on the sidelines. No, no, no.

They are energized. They're mobilized. They're ready to organize. And I can feel it right now in every corner of my state and across this country. And that is the power of the American people. Don't ever count us down. We're never out. We do fight back. And I can give you one example of hope because that's something seems a little bit of lost today. A lot of people are giving up hope.

They're despairing over the state of affairs and their own family's affairs. I would cut my teeth into politics. My parents used to protest the Vietnam War. I used to wear a black armband when I was in my Catholic grade school. The nuns didn't like that, but this is in my genes. I'm genetically created to protest and be an agitator.

I was a kid when I saw Richard Nixon resign in disgrace after Watergate and fly off in a helicopter off the White House lawn. Our country was in disarray. The vice president was in trouble. Our country was literally imploding. We lost young people during the Vietnam War. We lost people at Kent State, the shooting. Look it up in your history books, young people.

But listen, you know what happened the next year? 1974 was the greatest wave of Democrats elected to Congress that our country had seen at that point. had seen at that point. So that's what's in store for us. You don't give up. You use that anger and channel it into action. That's what I'm calling for from everyone. We'll stand together. We'll get through this. We've been through a lot.

And we look back, people look back at our time and ask, your grandkids will ask you, what did you do during the Trump administration? You can look at them and say, I fought back and we won.
