12 years ago today, I signed the Affordable Care Act into law. I’ve always believed that health care shouldn’t be a privilege for just a fortunate few, but a right for every American.
Today, more than 30 million Americans have health coverage thanks to the Affordable Care Act. pic.twitter.com/DmjgC00LpP
Twelve years ago, I proudly stood beside President @BarackObama as he signed into law the most consequential expansion of health care in generations: the Affordable Care Act. pic.twitter.com/chvqPCiV1h
As the first woman to serve as America’s top diplomat, Madeleine Albright was a champion for democratic values. Michelle and I send our thoughts to the Albright family and everyone who knew and served with a truly remarkable woman. pic.twitter.com/8jj3GYZXbB
It’s been a great year for college basketball, and now #MarchMadness is officially back. I’m excited for some of the young men in our @MBK_Alliance to join the action in New Orleans. Here's a look at my picks: https://t.co/LV9do4BSWB

I just tested positive for COVID. I’ve had a scratchy throat for a couple days, but am feeling fine otherwise. Michelle and I are grateful to be vaccinated and boosted, and she has tested negative.
It’s a reminder to get vaccinated if you haven’t already, even as cases go down.
Congrats on winning gold, @ErinJackson480! Your accomplishments on the ice are just as impressive as the humility and hard work you’ve demonstrated behind the scenes. I can’t wait to see what you do next. 🤩 https://t.co/AChDZEYrvn
And I couldn't be more grateful for all the medical professionals—the doctors, nurses, hospital staff, and more—who've continued to work every day of this pandemic to protect us all. Thank you for all that you do. ❤️
I want to congratulate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on her nomination to the Supreme Court. Judge Jackson has already inspired young Black women like my daughters to set their sights higher, and her confirmation will help them believe they can be anything they want to be. https://t.co/aCwiUBFTyj
I’m proud to announce that I am nominating Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the Supreme Court. Currently serving on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, she is one of our nation’s brightest legal minds and will be an exceptional Justice.https://t.co/iePvhz1YaApic.twitter.com/Nzqv2AtN8h
As a protégé of Justice Breyer, Judge Jackson earned a reputation for pragmatism and consensus building. It’s part of why I nominated her twice – first as a district judge, and then to the U.S. Sentencing Commission, where she earned praise from both Democrats and Republicans.
Like Justice Breyer, Judge Jackson understands that the law isn’t just about abstract theory. It’s about people’s lives. @POTUS Biden has made an excellent choice, and I look forward to seeing Judge Jackson confirmed.
