American Jewish Community

In his Passover message last year, President Obama encouraged us to embrace the lessons of this holiday and "work to alleviate the suffering, poverty, injustice and hunger of those who are not yet free." This Passover, we turn to the symbols of past hardships to remind us of our responsibility to serve others. President Obama reminds us of this important value every day with his belief that America prospers when we're all in it together.

In this week’s Jewish outreach update we highlight the celebration of Passover, our “Voting Rights” Seder, and new survey taken of the American Jewish community.

This week the White House released a Passover video message from the First Family. President Obama, along with Jewish members of his staff, will sit around the Passover table at the White House and to discuss the story of the Exodus. Watch this video of the President's Passover message.

In this week’s Jewish Outreach update we highlight our Jewish Outreach staff and examine the Administration’s strong support for the successful Iron Dome Anti-Missile defense system.
