Barack Obama

  • A Shameful Day in Washington

    90 percent of Americans support background checks, but 90 percent of Republicans in the Senate caved to the NRA’s lobbying machine and blocked the vote. We are not backing down. Round two starts now.

  • Heroism and kindness

    ''What the world saw yesterday in the aftermath of the explosions were stories of heroism and kindness, and generosity and love. If you want to know who we are, what America is, how we respond to evil -- that’s it. Selflessly. Compassionately. Unafraid.'' -- President Obama

  • Honoring Every Victim of Gun Violence

    This week, President Obama asked Francine Wheeler to give the White House weekly address. The Wheelers lost their 6-year-old son, Ben, in Newtown. She is one of the many victims of gun violence calling on Congress to take action. We can honor the Wheelers and all victims of gun violence by demonstrating the courage to take action to reduce it. Watch this powerful weekly address and then add your voice to call for common-sense reforms.

This is why on National Equal Pay Day, alongside President Obama, we must rededicate ourselves to the fight for equality and understand that our work is far from finished. Because these issues are not just women’s issues; they are issues for all of our families.

  • When I said in my State of the Union Address that these proposals deserve a vote — that the families of Newtown, and Aurora, and Tucson, and their former colleague in that chamber, Gabby Giffords, all deserve a vote — virtually every member in that chamber stood up and applauded.

    Now they're going to deny those families — your families — a vote, when the cameras are off and they think no one's looking?

    You deserve better. You deserve a vote.     – President Barack Obama

  • Now is the time to make your voice heard

    President Obama is asking the American people to join him in calling on Congress to pass commonsense measures to reduce gun violence. They deserve a vote.
