President-elect Barack Obama and his Vice President Joseph Biden announced Sunday the long-term plan to create a task force to address the standard of living for working and middle class families in the United States, a group regularly unaddressed by political pandering.
The task force, called the “White House Task Force on Working Families,” officials say, is intended to aid education and training funds and accessibility for middle class Americans while protecting their wage rates and retirement funds.
“Our charge is to look at existing and future policies across the board and use a yardstick to measure how they are impacting the working- and middle-class families,” said leader of the task force, Vice President-elect Joseph Biden.
“My administration will be absolutely committed to the future of America’s middle-class and working families. They will be front and center every day in our work in the White House, and this task force will be one vehicle we will use to ensure that we never forget that commitment,” proclaimed the President-elect to justify the Task Force.
