Revitalizing Public Service

Biden Speech

You have the mission to promote and revitalize public service; it's part of what you do.

Biden Challenge
Meet the Challenges of the Future

When we worked here together, we fought, scratched and clawed to make people’s lives a tiny bit better. That’s what public service is all about, small, incremental change, every day. Teddy Roosevelt once said: “Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is to work hard at work worth doing.” And I would add that what makes work worth doing is getting to do it with people that you love. ~ Leslie Knope, Parks and Recreation
