  1. Thank you for all you've done to protect our sacred right to vote. It's as important today as it's ever been.

  2. Heroes like , Dr. King, and countless others sacrificed so that all of our voices could be heard.

  3. Before 1965, African Americans faced poll taxes, literacy tests, or having to count jellybeans in a jar when they tried to register to vote.

  4. 50 years ago today, President Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law, securing the right to vote for millions of African Americans.

  5. Important detail – there are no secret deals. My staff can brief you on any question about any part of the deal.

  6. The choice is ultimately between diplomacy and war. Iran's nuclear program accelerates if Congress kills this deal.

  7. It's the strongest nuclear deal ever negotiated. There's no such thing as a "better deal." Walking away risks war.

  8. I refuse to condemn our kids to a planet that's beyond fixing. Let's meet this challenge and together.

  9. Despite what the critics will tell you, this plan will ultimately save the average American family nearly $85 a year on their energy bills.

  10. Thanks to this plan, there will be 90,000 fewer asthma attacks among our kids and we'll avoid 3,600 premature deaths in 2030.

  11. It's time to change that. With the Clean Power Plan, by 2030, carbon pollution from power plants will be 32% lower than it was a decade ago.

  12. Right now, power plants account for about one-third of America’s carbon pollution. That’s more than our cars, airplanes, and homes combined.

  13. Levels of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere are higher than they’ve been in 800,000 years. 2014 was the planet’s warmest year on record.

  14. Today, we're announcing America's Clean Power Plan—the most important step we've ever taken to combat climate change. Here are the facts:

  15. Hey , loving the photos. Do you ever look out the window and just freak out?

  16. Launching a pilot program to help students in prison pay for college, because everyone willing to work for it deserves a second chance.

  17. Happy 50th birthday, Medicare and Medicaid! Two programs, one promise: that every American deserves a basic measure of dignity and security.

  18. 25 years of the ADA and Americans with disabilities are breaking more barriers than ever, making all of us more free. Let's keep going.

  19. Proud to be the first American President to visit Kenya. Happy to see family, and to talk with young Kenyans about the future.
