Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States. [applause] pres. Trump thank you very much, everybody. What a nice crowd. It is beautiful. It might be hot, but it is beautiful. We are here today to celebrate and expand our Historic Campaign to rescue American Workers from job killing regulations. Before i came into office, American Workers were smothered by an avalanche of wasteful and expensive and intrusive federal regulation. These oppressive burdens and peoples were a tax our slashing takehome pay, suppressing innovation, and shipping millions of american jobs overseas. Millions and millions and millions. It never ended. Four years ago, we ended this regulatory assault on the American Worker, and we launched the most dramatic regulatory Relief Campaign in American History by far. No other administration has done anywhere near. [applause] thank you. At the heart of this effort was a revolutionary promise for every one new regulation, we pledged that two federal regulations would be permanently removed. We not only met that ambitious goal, which at the time people said was impossible, we exceeded it. For every one new regulation, nearly eight federal regulations have been terminated. [applause] an incredible achievement. As you can see behind me, we have removed the gigantic Regulatory Burden americans have been forced to carry for decades, freeing our citizens to reach their highest potential. Our historic regulatory relief is providing the average American Household an extra 3100 every single year. And we are going up from that number. [applause] we are going up from that number. Think of that. 3100 per household. Joining us today is Vice President mike pence. Thank you, mike. [applause] commerce secretary wilbur ross. Wilbur, thank you very much. Labor secretary eugene scalia. Thank you. Health and Human Services secretary alex azar. Thank you, alex. Transportation secretary elaine chao. Thank you, elaine. We had a great day in georgia yesterday. Cutting regulations like nobody has ever seen before. Epa administrator andrew wheeler. Thank you, andrew. Thank you very much. Omb acting director. Small business administrator. Thank you. Cms administrator. Great people. Those are great people. They are doing an incredible job should an incredible job. I want to thank the state and local tribal leaders that join us in this great cause. Thank you for being here. What we have achieved together is truly without precedent. Never happened before. The Previous Administration handed over 60,000 pages of heavyhanded regulations through the federal register. That is why nothing got done. Under my administration, we have removed 25,000 pages of job destroying regulations, more than any other president by far in the history of our country, whether it was four years, eight years, or more than eight years. The Prior Administration piled up more than 600 major new regulations, a cruel and punishing Regulatory Burden that cost the average American Worker an additional 2300 per year. The average american 2300. Hitting lowincome americans by far the hardest. These regulations reflected a these regulations inflicted a steep economic toll on africanamerican communities. By contrast, our reforms are putting more money into the pockets of hardworking americans. In addition to saving every family more than 3000 per year, my administration has issued another reform that my council of economic advisors estimates will lower the price of new vehicles by more than 2200 per vehicle. I think we will get that up to 3500 per vehicle. [applause] very exciting. The vehicles will be better, stronger, and safer. Regulation cuts will deliver massive savings on Broadband Internet services and some Home Energy Bills will be historically cut. It is actually amazing. As well as historically low gasoline prices. Gasoline prices, today, it was 1. 99. At the same time, we saved our oil companies. The Largest Energy source in the world. Nobody is even close. They had a hard time a number of months ago and frankly, for a long time, but we have saved them. 1. 99, they were telling me. In some cases, lower than that. We are bringing that Consumer Choice in Home Appliances so you can buy washers and dryers, showerheads and faucets. You take a shower, the water does not come out. You want to wash your hands, the water does not come out. What do you do . Do you just end their longer . Longer . Stand there my hair has to be perfect. [laughter] [applause] dishwashers, the people that do the dishes, you press it and it goes again and you do it again and again. You might as well give them the water because you will end up using less water. We made it so dishwashers now have a lot more water, and in many places in most places of the country water is not a , problem. They do not know what to do with it. It is called rain. They do not have a problem. Oldfashioned incandescent lightbulbs, i brought them back. They have two nice qualities. They are cheaper and they are better. They make you look so much better. That is important to all of us. But they are better. They are much cheaper. They were mandated out and we brought them back and they are selling like hot cakes. We stopped the egregious abuse of the clean water act which extreme activists have used to shut down Construction Projects all over the country. And i signed that legislation, i had many farmers and construction people standing behind me. People who have not cried since they were a baby. We gave them back their life. They took away their land and their rights. They took away their life. By reining in epa overreach, my administration has returned the agency to its core mission of ensuring cleanair, clean water and a truly pristine natural environment. Our air and water is as clean as it has been in the last four decades. Yesterday, our country achieved a groundbreaking milestone by completing a sweeping overhaul of americas badly broken infrastructure approval process. It was totally out of control. Instead of taking up to 20 years to approve a major project, we are cutting the federal permitting timeline it has already been done to a maximum of two years or less. In some cases, even less than one year. [applause] it is possible that it will not qualify and it is possible that it will not be good safetywise, in which case, we will raise their hand and you wont make it. But most projects will make it. You will not go for 10, 15, 18 or 20 years. There are many Horror Stories we can relate. We are reclaiming americas proud heritage as a nation of builders. My administration has also eliminated massive regulatory barriers in the battle against the china virus. These actions have saved countless lives. Ventilators like no one has ever seen before. Probably the greatest source of manufacturing and the greatest achievement since world war ii, we are making ventilators for countries all over the world. And medicine, accelerating the delivery of lifesaving treatments and ensuring we will have a vaccine in a record time. We are doing fantastically well on that. That will be for another time. Doing oneeting we are therapeutics. We are doing incredibly well. No administration in history has removed more red tape more quickly to rescue the economy and to protect the health of our people. When you think of it, we are all set up that as we get the vaccine or therapeutic and we are set up militarily, we will be delivering it in record time. It is all set to move. We put in investment upfront and we have logistical people, generals, great people, they will be delivering this all over the country. As soon we have it and we have made tremendous progress. You have been reading about it. In total, we have taken more than 740 actions to suspend regulations that would have slowed our response to the china virus. This includes lifting restrictions on manufacturers so that our autoworkers can produce more than 100,000 ventilators. We have done over 100,000 in 100 days. Think of that. We did not have ventilators. We were not set up for ventilators. We have become a country that is making a lot of them shoul. We are helping so many others. Countries that will never be in a position to make them. We have saved a lot of lives. There has never been a person in our country, even though we started with almost nothing, the cupboard was bare when we took over, we started with nothing, there has never been a person in our country, even though we had we were goingy on empty. Never have been one person who needed a ventilator that did not get it. Think of that. Not one person. As complex as they are. Big and expensive, takes a long time to get them done. Not one person has ever needed a ventilator that did not get it. Thank you. [applause] the people here they get no credit. I do not want the credit. We have done a great job helping so many other countries. We made telemedicine available to all american patients and allowed doctors to work across state lines. I will tell you the telemedicine is something that has gone up by thousands and thousands of Percentage Points because what happened is people that would not even think of using telemedicine all of a sudden starting using it and it has turned out to be good. Really, really turned out to be good and solved a lot of problems. That is something that has been great advancement. Furthermore, i have ordered federal agencies to look for ways to make these Health Care Reforms permanent. Vice president pence is working closely with state, local, and tribal leaders to streamline occupational licensing. Over 30 states have taken steps to reduce these barriers to unemployment and to employment, including a state that i love very much. A little history in that state. The great state of alaska. Thank you very much, governor, for being here. [applause] in idaho, the governor was here today with us as well, set a new record for regulatory relief. Good job. [applause] good governor. Great governor. Two great governors. The American People know best how to run their own lives. They dont need washington bureaucrats controlling their every move and micromanaging their every decision. With each regulation we cut, we are not only returning the money and the power to our citizens, we are draining the washington swamp, and they are not happy about it. I can tell you that. I think you know that. Deep. Amp was i just didnt know how deep. Deeper than i thought. Joining us today are a few of the countless americans who are personally benefiting our proworker reforms. Owns cambria joe cambria Truck Company in new jersey. It has been something he has seen firsthand, how our regulation cuts have helped create thousands and thousands of jobs. Joe, please come up and say a few words. Thank you, joe. [applause] in 1969, my grandfather, uncle, and father started the business. In the past 3. 5 years, the Trump Administration has kept its promise to right size regulations. I want to thank you for that, president trump. Regulatory reform in the Energy Sector creates jobs, reduces costs for our communities and puts trucks to work. Streamlined permitting and creating an environment that allows for efficient construction and infrastructure repair and development has the same effect. As a result of these Regulatory Reforms, our industry has seen record sales of heavyduty trucks, which has been a boon to dealerships like ours as well as the environment. When new trucks replace older models come there is an environmental benefit. Current powertrains have near zero emissions today and we are going electric, as well as increased safety like shorter stopping distances and Collision Avoidance technology. Safer on the road. It has also been nice to hear made in the usa again, bringing manufacturing back to our shores helps our industry and our entire country. In short, when we cut red tape, we created an economy that is responsible and sensible. We as americans all win. Thank you, president trump. President trump thank you very much. [applause] good job. That was easy, wasnt it . Thank you very much. Great job. Dr. Amy johnson is a Nurse Practitioner in rural virginia. Amy, please come up and share with us how important expanded health care and telehealth has been for you and your patients. Thank you very much. Thank you, mr. President. My name is dr. Amy johnson. I am from bedford, virginia. Telehealth deregulations has been a substantial benefit to my colleagues and i over recent months during the covid19 crisis. Prior to covid restrictions, our small, local hospital that has limited access to Specialty Services used telehealth for neurological, Mental Health, and Palliative Care consult. However, telehealth is not something that was used within our primary care setting. Since the deregulation, and expansion of guidelines through cms weve had the , opportunity to integrate video and audio visits as part of our patient care experience. During the covid crisis, there were days when almost all of my visits were done in telehealth. This allowed me to continue to care for my patients, including those that were the most vulnerable, without risking exposure to illness by bringing them into the office setting. Since weve gone back to a more traditional model, we continue to offer telehealth visits which are a valuable option for patients with limited mobility and patients that remain at high risk. As a farm safety specialist, i can see the use of telehealth expanding to offer more services to our farming populations and rural americans, including muchneeded Mental Health services, which are unfortunately very sparse. In addition, access to primary care and to Specialty Services can be improved in medically underserved areas with the with deregulation and the use of Telehealth Services by health care providers, increasing the youth of Preventative Health care modalities, allowing more intensive management of patients with chronic diseases, and decreasing health care disparity. Thank you, mr. President. Pres. Trump thank you very much. Great job. Thank you. So that has been a great help to you, telehealth, has been an incredible thing. Great job. Thank you very much. Jim is a rancher from arizona who was crushed by the obamabiden administrations ridiculous waters of the United States rule. It has been a catastrophic rule but its gone now. Bureaucrats the ability to regulate every puddle. Jim, please come up and tell us of your experience, which i know wasnt a good one, but its a good one now. Please. [applause] i appreciate the invitation, president trump, to be here, and i appreciate the opportunity to thank you for the deregulation in every area, including the waters of the United States. Cutting the red tape, setting us free as private property owners, thank you. Our ranch has approximately 100 dry washes flowing across it. These are little washes with no water. The corps of engineers, the Environmental Protection agency, who wrote the obama 2015 regulations ruled that any dry wash that had more than 12 inches of sand in the bottom became a water of the United States. Hence, we were subject to regulations and oversight from washington, d. C. And san francisco. It was outrageous. I believe that the 2015 rules and regulations were overreaching, caused red tape, and threatened me and other farmers, ranchers, businessmen, and landowners with the possibility of going to jail and facing huge fines. Thank you, mr. President , for the navigable Water Protection rule that you promulgated. It has set us free, the heavy hand of government is no longer on our shoulders. Thank you, mr. President. [applause] pres. Trump thank you, jim. Thank you very much. That was my honor, and thank you very much. It is terrible that you had to suffer for so long. They took your property away from you. You want to take care of your property better than any government is going to tell you to take care of your property, you will take care of it better, so we dont have to worry about that. Thank you beautifully thank thankifully said you very much. Beautifully said. I want to, just as president , say that i will always fight to defend your rights and your freedoms. I will fight very hard for your rights and your freedoms. The hard left wants to reverse these extraordinary gains, reimpose these disastrous regulations. They want to take what we have taken off and put them back on. And i guess they can do that. You fight them for a little while, but eventually you will lose. They want to bury our economy under suffocating, relentless landslides of washington red tape like we had before i got here. We must never return to the days of soul crushing regulation that ravaged our cities, devastated our workers, drained our vitality right out of our people and thoroughly crippled our nations prize competitive edge. That is what we have. Great people the greatest people , in the world. Our entire economy and our very way of life are threatened by bidens plans to transform our nation and subjugate our communities through the Blunt Force Instrument of federal regulation at a level that you havent even seen yet. You think that was bad, you havent even seen it yet. They want to go many times what they put you under in the past. Under the unity platform, joe biden published with socialist bernie sanders, they are proposing, and this is all in writing. It
