Today, President Obama sent a message to the White House email list, in which he talks about a letter from the late Senator Edward Kennedy on the importance of reforming our country's health care system. Read the letter here -- and make sure to tune in tomorrow at 11:45 a.m. ET to watch the President's remarks on health care.
On Saturday, the Biden family, President Obama, and Americans across the country paid their final respects to a good man who loved deeply, and was loved in return. A veteran of the Iraq war, the Attorney General of Delaware -- and most importantly -- a dedicated father, husband, and son, Beau Biden was a compassionate and empathetic public servant who cared about what matters most in life, the people and country he loved.
In this week's address, the President recognized Immigrant Heritage Month, an occasion that allows us to celebrate our origins as a nation of immigrants. The basic idea of welcoming people to our shores is central to our ancestry and our way of life.

 
 
 Quote of the Day
"He did in 46 years what most of us couldn't do in 146. He left nothing in the tank. He was a man who led a life where the means were as important as the ends. The example he set made you want to be a better dad, or a better son, or a better brother or sister, better at your job, the better soldier. He made you want to be a better person."
