Thanks to President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act, the IRS developed the Direct File Pilot for eligible taxpayers. IRS Direct File saved time and money for over 140,000 taxpayers and provided the lessons necessary to determine next steps.

'Our leaders determined that Russia is not getting back this money until they pay for the damage that they have done in Ukraine,' Deputy Secretary Wally Adeyemo tells Gina Chon.

'President Biden is pushing now ... to find ways to utilize those assets to benefit the Ukrainian people.' #WES2024

Because of decisive policy decisions made by President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, America’s seen its most equitable economic recovery in history.

As part of President Biden’s comprehensive strategy to crack down on fentanyl trafficking, Secretary Janet Yellen launched a Counter Fentanyl Strike Force to sharpen Treasury Department’s efforts against drug cartels. We’ve also worked with Mexican counterparts to deepen cooperation on this shared priority.

Alongside local leaders and law enforcement in Arizona, I just announced new Treasury Department sanctions on 15 people and 6 Mexico-based businesses affiliated with the Sinaloa Cartel that are part of a black-market network that launders millions in illicit fentanyl proceeds.

Under President Biden’s leadership, we’ve taken decisive action against illicit fentanyl trafficking. In the last 2 years alone, Treasury Department has sanctioned nearly 300 targets for their roles in drug trafficking – helping stop the flow of drug trade money that puts American lives at risk.

The new, free Direct File tool has reached a big milestone one week in—more than 50,000 taxpayers have started or filed their tax return. See if you are eligible at DirectFile.IRS.Gov

At the Sibanye-Stillwater mining operation, I saw the people, systems, and investments powering the clean energy supply chain.

By 2050, one out of every four people on the planet will be African.

Young people like the ones I met this week — from those entering the workforce now through Harambee Work4Work to tomorrow’s leaders at ALA — will be key to unlocking the economic power of the continent.

Companies like Ener-G-Africa show that the clean energy transition isn’t a distant goal; it’s improving lives and creating good jobs today.

Great to see these made-in-Africa products — solar panels and affordable, energy-efficient cookware — filling critical gaps for consumers.

I learned so much from my visit to Philippi Village today.

I saw what it takes to create space and invest in community, and heard from young South Africans about how important it is to connect talent to opportunity.
