Statement on the 2020 Election Results

“Despite unprecedented challenges, a projected 159.8 million Americans went to the ballot box to exercise their fundamental right to choose their leaders. While the election has exposed continued political divisions, we urge Americans to trust in the institutions and laws that govern our democracy. And, we encourage Americans to have faith in a peaceful transition of power—a bedrock feature of every democracy around the world.

“An orderly transition to the next administration is critical given the unprecedented scale of challenges we face and the vital role America plays.

“InterAction looks forward to working with President-elect Biden and the next Congress on eliminating extreme poverty, strengthening human rights and citizen participation, safeguarding a sustainable planet, promoting peace, and ensuring dignity for all people.”
