And so, this is a commitment that the President is giving to the family and to Americans. And — and so, you know, this is a commitment that he had, a promise that he made. And where we were left with is either we bring Brittney home or no one at all. And so the — you know, had a — one of my colleagues in the National Security Council said today he believed that there was a moral obligation here to get her home. Does this not mean that this President will stop with Brittney?
A Proclamation on National Small Business Week, 2024
That is something that the President wanted to do. And so now we’re going to continue to have those conversations and finding a way to bring him home. So, clearly, we have expanded our toolkit. And — and so that is showing how important this issue of Americans being wrongfully detained abroad and held hostage is important to the President and making sure that we bring them home, but also stop — stop those actions that we’re seeing from those countries. We are also grateful to other countries, including Saudi Arabia, that released [sic] the issue of our wrongfully detained Americans with Russian government — that raised that issue.

Press Briefing by White House COVID-19 Response Team and Public Health Officials

To be clear, the goal of vaccination requirements is to protect workers, not to punish them. So tonight’s deadline is not an endpoint or a cliff. We continue to see more and more federal employees getting their shots. This slide makes it a little bit more graphic.

This morning, you heard President Biden speak about the critical importance of the national security supplemental, which came to the President’s desk, as we said it would, with overwhelming bipartisan support from the U.S. I’ve stood at this podium numerous times and said, you know, the road may be full of twists and turns, I can’t predict exactly when it will happen, but I always had confidence it would happen. We are going to do everything that we can to bring them home. We are going to keep our commitment to bring American citizens — again, who are being wrongfully detained, who are being held hostage — safe — back home safely to their families, where they should be. I mean, obviously we’re all very happy to hear the news that she’s coming home.
As it relates to the bill — the law now — there’s time. There are already American investors who are — who are willing and are interested in buying TikTok. So, we’re going to continue to do that forcefully, condemn antisemitism from this administration. We’re going to contem- — continue to do that. We’re implementing, as you know, the — the first-ever National Strategic Effort to Counter Antisemitism because there should be no place in this country in — when it relates to that type of hate.

So that is a commitment that the President has to the American people. But again, he believed this was the right thing to do in bringing Brittney home. In this pa- — in this last week, the President approved moving forward with releasing Viktor Bout in exchange for bringing home Brittney Griner.
And Dr. Kessler, you know, last month sort of hinted that that was sort of under consideration. I mean, are you considering using the DPA to take action against Moderna for technology transfer? We started with about 20,000 sites for adolescents — sorry, for 5- to 11-year-olds to get vaccinated — places like pediatrician’s offices, children’s hospitals, in place- — in local pharmacies where parents and kids are comfortable, and trusted providers. I am wondering about vaccines for the 5- to 11-year-olds and whether you have any sense of trends yet at this point how it compares to other vaccine rollouts or the older adolescent vaccines. Let me close by underscoring that continued progress requires everyone doing their part. So if you’re unvaccinated or eligible for a booster, please go get your shot.

But behind the scenes, the administration across the board has worked relentlessly to address those concerns. We now have a significant number of ATACMS coming off the production line and entering U.S. stocks. And as a result, we can move forward with providing ATACMS while also sustaining the readiness of the U.S. armed forces. Second, our allies, as the President said this morning, have been mobilizing in support of Ukraine alongside us. Just yesterday, the UK announced a significant new package of military aid for Ukraine, alongside major investments that they are making in their defense industrial base, putting their defense budget on a path to reach 2.5 percent of their GDP by the end of the decade.

Visa processing is recovering faster than projected. And this year, we expect to reach pre-pandemic processing levels. And any specifics or more about the visa process, I would refer you to the State Department on that. And we’ve heard from everyday people in Arizona talking about how — how the announcement that the President made is going to do that, how the CHIPS and Science Act is changing the lives of Americans. What I can tell you is that the President is committed and continues to be committed in getting American — American citizens back home who are being held, who are wrongfully detained.
For example, we have 98 percent compliance at the IRS, with nearly 25 percent of IRS employees getting vaccinated after the President announced the requirement. As part of the President’s plan to protect individuals and accelerate our path out of the pandemic, he announced in September that all federal employees would be required to be vaccinated. Boosters are free and readily available at 80,000 locations across the country, including more than 40,000 local pharmacies. But still, overall, when looking at hospitalization rates, unvaccinated adults had nine times higher rate of hospitalizations than vaccinated adults. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby briefed reporters on a range of issues, including the war in Ukraine and Hunter Biden traveling on Marine One with his son, Beau. In an email provided to CNN by Michael Avenatti, Cohen forwarded a confirmation of transfer of money to Daniels’ former attorney Keith Davidson.
Don’t want to get ahead of any conversation about arms deal. But this was about what the President’s commitment is and has been, what the administration’s work has been, which is bringing home American citizens who are wrongfully detained. And that has been our focus with Brittney this past year. What I can tell you is the promise that this President has made, right? We’re not going to — certainly not going to talk about diplomatic conversations that may be occurring, right? But we want — we want American people to know that their safety and security is among our highest priorities.
And so, finally, our booster vaccine regimens work against Omicron. At this point, there is no need for a variant-specific booster. Obviously, this is significantly down, but there is the maintaining of a degree of protection against hospitalization. Clearly, because — first slide please — clearly because we have an intense interest on the evolving scenario with Omicron, a number of studies have been done throughout the country and the world to take a look at how we might prepare in the context of vaccinations. And I’ll divide it up into two components. “Since the Israel-Gaza war began, journalists have been paying the highest price — their lives — to defend our right to the truth.
And we are — I am — deeply proud of the work that the President has done, this administration has done to get her home.With that, Seung Min. While we’re celebrating Brittney’s return home today, we have also continued to be in touch with the Whelan family for whom this news brings mixed emotions. As the Secretary of State said publicly in July, we have been engaging in intense negotiations with Russia, pursuing many different avenues over the course of the last six months to secure Brittney’s release. And we know Brittney fought tirelessly too. McEnany’s briefing will also be her first since the release of Rasmussen’s latest weekly poll, which showed Biden up eight points at 51 percent against Trump’s 43 percent.
