Working

I’m excited to share the trailer for Working. In this series, I talk to American workers across various industries – from hospitality and technology to home care – to understand their jobs and hopes for the future. I hope you’ll check it out on @Netflix on May 17. pic.twitter.com/GNQPns6Mzf

BFD: Inflation Reduction Act

This is a BFD. https://t.co/L0sh8ULo4T

Thanks, Obama https://t.co/5KZfiXIGgd

Today, I signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law. It does so much of what we've fought to make happen for years like lowering costs and proving our government can work for working folks.

Here are the three major things you should know: https://t.co/7d5Dnk4bKS

Build Back Better

In a country as large and diverse as ours, progress can often feel frustrating and slow, with small victories accompanied by frequent setbacks. But once in a while, it’s still possible to take a giant leap forward. That’s what the Build Back Better framework represents. pic.twitter.com/ouKhRRz6qP

Pay Your Fair Share

If we want to give our children and grandchildren a brighter future, the wealthiest Americans and large corporations must pay their fair share in taxes. https://t.co/zqlZr6UpLe

Changes, They Are Aaah-Coming

Direct cash payments.
Extended unemployment.
Rent relief.
Food assistance.
Aid to small businesses.
Keeping essential frontline workers on the job.

Those are the key elements of my American Rescue Plan.

Biden including a $15 minimum wage in his stimulus plan is huge

Biden moving to abolish the tipped minimum wage and sub-minimum wage for people with disabilities in his stimulus package is even bigger IMO

— Hayes Brown (@HayesBrown) January 15, 2021

The bar and restaurant industry has been gutted this last year. Making it so that when its safe for those people to go back to work that they can make an actual living wage instead of hoping their customers aren’t jerks is exactly what they deserve

— Hayes Brown (@HayesBrown) January 15, 2021

Honestly, I don’t know how anyone can know someone who’s been on waitstaff or bar staff and NOT be in favor of getting rid of the tipped minimum wage

— Hayes Brown (@HayesBrown) January 15, 2021

Also: if you’re a person who tips now and say you will stop once people make the actual minimum wage even without tips? Why? Why would you suddenly think “well, I guess they no longer did the exact same thing that would have gotten them a tip before”?

On 1st day, Biden will rescind travel ban on several Muslim countries, rejoin Paris climate accord, extend pandemic limits on evictions and student loan payments, and order agencies to figure out how to reunite children separated from families at border. https://t.co/bPj007bw2w

The President On CBS

Everything Is On The Line

This Election Day, everything is on the line. Our jobs. Our health care. Whether or not we get this pandemic under control. But here’s the good news: today, you can choose change. You can elect @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. Let’s win this thing. pic.twitter.com/rvW2uOknpl

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) November 3, 2020

TODAY is Election Day. There are no do overs. Show up, have your voice heard, and vote. https://t.co/9gwUiQQ22l

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) November 3, 2020

For eight years, Joe was the last one in the room whenever I faced a big decision. He made me a better president. And today, we have the chance to elect Joe and Kamala to build our country back better. But it’s going to take every single one of us. Vote: https://t.co/XdZz4dh82T https://t.co/Tg95bMztqT

Closing Argument

My heart goes out to everyone touched by this virus, from those at the White House, especially the Secret Service and residence staff whose service ought never be taken for granted, to all those names and stories most of us will unfortunately never know. https://t.co/dtEUrcjPAy

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

The truth is, the events of the past few days are a bracing reminder of the tragedy that has been this administration’s response to this crisis.

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

And I’ll be very honest: This is a message I’d planned to release earlier, and after everything that’s happened, I weighed whether or not to go public at all. But I wanted you all to hear what’s been on my mind.

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

Because the drama of the past few days has only emphasized what’s at stake in this election, from the coronavirus to a constant drumbeat of fear, division, and chaos that’s threatening to spiral out of control.

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

There’s only one way we can pull ourselves out—by voting for my friend @JoeBiden, who’s got the heart, the experience, and the character to lead us to better days.

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

So I hope you’ll watch, and I hope you’ll share this with everyone you know who might still be deciding how or if they’re going to vote.

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

And more than anything, I hope you’ll vote for Joe with power, with passion, and with a love of this country that cannot possibly be denied.

— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 6, 2020

Listen to Michelle Obama: “We’ve got to vote early, in person if we can. We’ve got to request our mail-in ballots right now, tonight, and send them back immediately and follow-up to make sure they’re received. And then, make sure our friends and families do the same”
