Friday to discuss his administration's efforts aimed at lowering costs for American families.
Biden's arrival Wednesday night at Los Angeles International Airport and subsequent motorcade from Santa Monica Airport to Westwood snarled rush-hour traffic for hours. Biden touted the project as dramatically cutting the time it will take to travel from downtown to West Los Angeles, adding more than 80,000 daily riders to the Metro system while taking 27,000 cars off the roads. He also said it would result in 124,000 fewer tons of carbon dioxide from being released into the air, and would save 14 million gallons of gas.
"It's been a rough four or five years for the country. ... but there's bright spots where America's reasserting itself," he said. "Like here, where the best workers in the world are hard at work building a better future for all of us. ... We just have to keep it going, and I know we can. I know we can. I've never been more optimistic about America's future, particularly relative to the rest of the world.
