NATIONAL U.S. – ARAB CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
CONGRATULATES PRESIDENT-ELECT JOE BIDEN
“Our Chamber looks forward to working closely with the new Administration – just as we have with all previous Administrations, Democratic or Republican – to promote American prosperity.”
– David Hamod, NUSACC CEO
 Washington, D.C. – The National U.S. – Arab Chamber of Commerce (NUSACC) – an independent, nonpartisan U.S. business association – extends its congratulations today to Joe Biden on his election as President of the United States.
“This has been a long and contentious election, and we believe that it is time for all Americans to come together in support of our new President-elect, Joe Biden, and his Vice President-elect, Kamala Harris,” said David Hamod, President & CEO of NUSACC. “We are grateful to the outgoing President of the United States, Donald Trump, for his service to the nation. We hope that Mr. Trump will work with his successor in the weeks ahead to encourage a peaceful transition and to help promote America’s interests at home and around the world.”
 The United States has enjoyed a longstanding tradition of peaceful transitions after elections, a process that is admired throughout the world. After succeeding George Washington as America’s second President, John Adams wrote, “The sight of the sun setting . . . and another rising (though less splendid), was a novelty.” Without regard to the party or personality of the incoming President, smooth transitions in the White House have long been testaments to the strength of American democracy.
Hamod went on to say, “The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is of great importance to our country in terms of economic prosperity, security, and America’s national interests. I hope that President-elect Biden will strengthen commercial ties with the peoples of the MENA region, one of the most pro-American markets in the world.” He concluded, “Our Chamber looks forward to working closely with the new Administration – just as we have with all previous Administrations, Democratic or Republican – to help promote American prosperity.”
