President-elect Joe Biden said "help is on the way" and promised a "recovery for everybody" at a press event on Tuesday where he introduced his nominees and picks for his economic team.

"Let me be clear, when this team and others will add in the weeks ahead that we're going to create a recovery for everybody, for all," Biden said at an event in Delaware. "We are going to get this economy moving again. We are going to create jobs, raise incomes, reduce drug prices, advance racial equity across the economy and restore the backbone of this country the middle class."


"Our message to everybody struggling right now is this, help is on the way," Biden said. "My dad you have heard me say this before when he lost his job in Scranton when I was a kid and we eventually move the family not far from here Claymont, Delaware just on the outskirts of Wilmington he used to say, 'Joey, a job is about a lot more than a paycheck it's about your dignity, it's about respect your place in the community. It's about being able to look a kid in the eye and say honey, it's going to be okay and mean it.'"
