READ: Barack Obama's scathing campaign speech - CNN

You've got two ways to vote right now.

If you haven't, just go to iwillvote.com/pa and find out where you can vote early.

Just go to iwillvote.com/pa to request your ballot right away.

So you've got to read the directions carefully to make sure your vote counts.

And if you've already voted, then you've got to help your friends and family make a plan to vote.

And I said, during that speech, I've sat in the Oval Office with both of the men who are running for president.

The only people truly better off than they were four years ago are the billionaires who got his tax cuts.

It is not a great idea to have a president who owes a bunch of money to people overseas.

It's just possible now that if you are living high on the hog and you only pay $750 in taxes that maybe, just maybe he might not know what working people are going through here in Pennsylvania.

Right now you can vote for my friend Joe Biden and his running mate, Kamala Harris as the next president and vice president of the United States of America.

He made me a better president and he's got the character and experience to make us a better country.

Making stuff up doesn't make people's lives better.

And along with the experience to get things done, Joe Biden has concrete plans and policies that will turn our vision of a better, fairer, stronger country into a reality.

We literally left this White House a pandemic playbook that would have shown them how to respond before the virus reached our shores.

It's just not true.

In Canada, it's just 39% of what ours is.

Joe will get this pandemic under control with a plan to make testing free and widely available, to get a vaccine to every American cost free and to make sure our frontline heroes never ask other countries for their equipment they need.

His plan will guarantee paid sick leave for workers and parents affected by the pandemic and make sure that the small businesses that hold our communities together and employ millions of Americans can reopen safely.

And Joe sees this moment not just as a chance to get back to where we were but to finally make long overdue changes so that our economy actually makes life a little easier for everybody, the waitress trying to raise her kid on her own, the student trying to figure out how to pay for next semester's classes, the shift worker who's always on the edge of getting laid off, the cancer survivor who's worried about her preexisting conditions, protections being taken away.

Let me tell you something Pennsylvania.

Now, Joe and I actually protected your policies to make sure people with preexisting conditions could get health insurance and have coverage.

And Republicans tried to repeal or undermine it more than 60 times.

And when they've been asked about, they keep on promising, "We're going to have a great replacement." They said, "It's coming." It's been coming in two weeks for the last 10 years?

And with Joe and Kamala at the helm, you're not going to have to think about the crazy things they said every day.

You're not going to have to argue about them every day.

It just won't be so exhausting.

You'll be able to go about your lives knowing that the president is not going to retweet conspiracy theories about secret cabals running the world or that maybe seals didn't actually kill bin Laden.

We're not going to have a president that goes out of his way to insult anybody who doesn't support him or threaten them with jail.

They embolden other people to be cruel and divisive and racist, and it frays the fabric of our society, and it affects how our children see things.

The Labor Department that's supposed to protect workers and their rights, right now it's run by a corporate lobbyist who's declared war on workers, guts protections to keep essential folks safe during a pandemic, makes it easier for big corporations to shortchange them on their wages.

I mean, the person who runs Medicaid right now is doing their best to kick people off of Medicaid instead of sign them up for Medicaid.

The right to vote is sacred and that we shouldn't be making people wait in line for 10 hours to cast their ballot.

It depends on actually learning the facts and following the science and not just making stuff up whenever it's convenient.

Our democracy is not going to work if the people who are supposed to be our leaders lie every day and just make things up.

And we've just become numb to it.

We've just become immune to it.

We cannot leave any doubt in this election, because you know the President's already said, "If this is even close, I'm going to just make stuff up." He's already started to do it.

So we can't have any doubt.

Even supporters of mine, during my eight years, there were times where stuff we wanted to get done didn't get done and people said, "Well, gosh, if Obama didn't get it done, then maybe it's just not going to happen." Look, government is not going to solve every problem, it's true.

Every elected officials going to make some mistakes.

But we can make things better, and we shouldn't be making things worse.

But if we've got Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in the White House at a House and Senate that are focused on working people, it can make a difference and get millions of people the help they need.

But if we've got district attorneys and state's attorneys and sheriffs and police chiefs focused on equality and justice, it can make things better.

In Pennsylvania, you've just got to flip nine seats in your State House, just five seats in your State Senate, to give Democrats control and new life for policies that'll make a real difference to working families right now.

It can make things better.

In the end, Pennsylvania, that's what voting's about, making things better, not making things perfect, but putting us on track so that a generation from now we can look back and say, "Things got better starting now." And that's what voting's about.

And the fact that we don't get 100% of what we want right away is not a good reason not to vote.

It means we've got to vote and then get some change and then vote some more and then get some more change, and then keep on voting until we get it right.

And we will never come close to seeing what it would be like if everybody voted, when I hear people say, "Well, I don't know, you're voting don't make a difference." We don't know because usually no more than half the people who could be voting vote.

We get 50, 55% of people voting?

Imagine January 20th, when we swear in a president and a vice president who have a plan to get us out of this mess, who believe in science, and they have a plan to protect this planet for our kids, and who care about working Americans, and they have a plan to help you start getting ahead.

And who believe in racial equality and gender equality, and believe in not discriminating against people because of their sexual orientation, and are willing to bring us closer to an America where no matter what we look like and where we come from, who we love and what our last name is, if we go out there and we work, we can make it.

And we're part of an American family.

Because let me tell you something Pennsylvanians, people ask me sometimes, they say, "Man, how have you been able to take these last four years, just watching all this.

We've seen folks of every age and background who've packed city centers and airports in town squares, just so families wouldn't be separated.

So another classroom wouldn't get shot up, so our kids wouldn't grow up on an uninhabitable planet.

We've seen people volunteer and contribute to help those who are having an especially difficult time that right now.

That's true in Pennsylvania, that's true all across the country.

America is a good and decent place, but we've just seen so much noise and nonsense that sometimes it's hard for us to remember.

Philadelphia, I'm asking you to remember what this country can be.

I'm asking you to believe in Joe's ability, in Kamala's ability to lead this country out of these dark times, and help us build it back better, because we can't abandon those who are hurting right now.

We've got to channel their activism into action, we can't just imagine a better future.

We've got to out hustle the other side, we got to outwork the other side, we've got to vote like never before and leave no doubt.

So make a plan right now, for how you're going to get involved and vote.

Don't stop with Joe and Kamala, make sure you vote all the way down the ticket.

And if we pour all our efforts into these 13 days, if we vote up and down the ticket, like never before, then we will not only elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, we will also leave no doubt about what this country that we love stands for.

We will not leave any doubt about who we are as a people, and the values and ideals that we embrace.

What Lincoln called the better angels of our nature, those are still in us.

We see that what is best in us is still there, but we've got to give it voice, and we've got to do it now.

So let's get to work people.
