“Too much of politics is about performance and pitting people against each other. Today is about policy and partnerships,” said Auchincloss. “There’s an old proverb that says ‘go fast, go alone; go far, go together.’ We are going to go fast, together. We are going to invest in our health and our infrastructure so that this economy works for everyone.”
