A Toast to the New Administration
Dear Progressives,
I wanted to share with everyone the Toast given at the Inauguration 2021 Virtual Parade and Dance Party this week:
"Here we are... January 20, 2021. I know many of you thought this day would never come! And what a gorgeous day it was in DC today - and all went peacefully, so let's include a thanks for that in our toast.
"Let's also toast to our front-line workers, who have been tirelessly devoted to the American people during this pandemic. I'd also like to include a moment of silence in honor of the victims of Covid.
"Now, for the happy part: Toasting to Joe Biden's principles of Decency, Unity, and Competence.
"Everyone raise your glasses in honor of our new 46th President and our 1st woman Vice President.
"May they lead our nation with grace and dignity. May they surround themselves with informed advisors. May they listen to all points of view and act in the best interest of the US people. May they bring back respect to the United States in the global arena. May they work tirelessly for racial justice, that is so needed in our country. Finally, may they lead with inclusivity so that all Americans are proud to call them our leaders.
"I am excited about the possibilities that the next four years will bring and I know you all are too. So, raise your glasses and CHEERS to President Biden and Vice President Harris!"
