The American Beverage Association today issued the following statement on the inauguration of President Joe Biden:

America’s beverage industry congratulates President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on their historic inauguration. We look forward to working together with their administration on issues of vital importance to all Americans, including confronting the pandemic, rebuilding the economy, protecting the environment, addressing health disparities and modernizing the nation’s critical infrastructure, including for recycling.  

Importantly, we share President Biden’s vision for an “America United,” as the need for our nation to come together has never been more important. While our nation’s challenges may be great, the opportunity to build a stronger America is even greater. 

We stand ready to work hand-in-hand with the Biden-Harris administration and members of Congress on both sides of the aisle to drive solutions to our nation’s very real problems. Let us all embrace the hope, optimism and promise that has always guided this great country forward.
