ENGAGING THE COMMUNITY

President Obama is committed to working with all Americans to create the brightest future for our country. Since taking office, the President has demonstrated that his vision includes the very issues that are of vital importance to the American Jewish community, from rebuilding the economy, fighting discrimination and making sure that every American has access to quality health care, to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and strengthening the U.S.-Israel relationship.

Working together, we can strengthen our economy, revitalizing our schools, and out-innovating our global competitors. Stay involved at WhiteHouse.gov/engage.
