This week, I'm in Malawi with @MelindaGates and Amal Clooney as part of our work together to advance gender equality and help end child marriage. We’re visiting programs like @AGEAfrica that are supporting girls to pursue their dreams. pic.twitter.com/OsU2GtPgZl
The girls I met have so many hopes and aspirations for their place in the world. @AGEAfrica is helping to ensure that they can reach their potential by offering scholarships, mentorship, and more. pic.twitter.com/P3TdZZWKaU
My friend @AliciaKeys and her talented team met with some of our @MBK_Alliance students and @ObamaFoundation Youth Job Corps interns during her Keys to the Summer Tour stop in Chicago. Check out their reflections—and take a peek at what happens behind the scenes of her tour! pic.twitter.com/z2V2xucGdn
Sixty years ago, the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom showed us what's possible when ordinary people come together to push for change. Now it’s up to all of us to protect and build on that progress, and create a better future for generations to come. pic.twitter.com/1QD2wjC6uT
I had fun answering some questions about my work journey. Check it out, and then make sure to watch Working: What We Do All Day on Netflix. pic.twitter.com/yZY8NygXVD
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
Here’s an example of a smart policy that gets rid of unnecessary college degree requirements and reduces barriers to good paying jobs. I hope other states follow suit! https://t.co/ik8SOeoMem
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.
Michelle and I started the @ObamaFoundation's Futures Series to connect the young leaders of tomorrow with the trailblazers of today. It’s great to see the impact that it’s already having on students from the South Side. https://t.co/0Ga97LzU09
We have a responsibility to the young people of the neighborhood. That's why we launched our Futures Series at Hyde Park Academy, the high school that neighbors the future Obama Presidential Center, to expose students to careers they may not have been envisioning for themselves. pic.twitter.com/fyLYITWG7r

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
We have ambitious goals, and our team is growing to reach them! From supporting our global programs to developing innovative products—we have a number of exciting opportunities open for applications.
