VA during President Biden’s first 100 days
April 30 marks 100 days since President Joe Biden took office. President Franklin D. Roosevelt coined the “first 100 days” moniker in a 1933 radio address at the height of the Great Depression. He used the phrase as a goal post to show that his administration had moved quickly to get the country working again.
