Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joseph Biden remarks at a ceremony to celebrate WomenÂ’s History Month in the National Statuary Hall of the Capitol building that she would have to leave early two welcome home astronaut Scott Kelly from a year in space. Biden says that she and Michelle Obama talked back on election night back in 2008 about how the two of them could work together to serve those courageous Americans the way they have served each and every one of us. She says that in dialog with servicemembers and their loved ones around the country she and the first lady heard during those conversations was very similar from what we hear today from all American families. They want to ensure that the children have a good education. That their family has the health care that they deserve, and that they have the opportunity to have a good paying job. She says that it is so important that we ensure women veterans have the tools in the resources they need to succeed because a new job or degree can empower is entering into her family.
