#shorts On 10/25/2022, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “On the “national emergency” front then, what is the criteria the country would have to meet for it not to be a national emergency? Or is that even a goal?”
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, here’s the thing: We cannot forget that COVID is still a problem. We just had Dr. Jha here talking to all of you. He wanted to be here, and we wanted him to be — to all of you, because you guys communicate with the American people. And we want — we want that — the American people to know that there is a new vaccine out there, and they need to get that shot in the arm because that new vaccine is going to help them ahead of the winter months … So, again, we are — we are still dealing with COVID. We’re trying to do everything that we can to make sure that it continues to not be a disrupter. Right? And the reason that it’s not a disrupter is because of the work that this President has done in the last 20 months. Okay, I’m going to move on. Go ahead.
Q: is that even a goal? what is the criteria for not to be a national emergency?
