Weekly Address: Extending Middle Class Tax Cuts to Grow the Economy
In his weekly address, President Obama says that it’s time for Congress to pass the middle class tax cuts for 98% of all Americans. Both parties agree that this will give 98% of families and 97% of small businesses the certainty that will lead to growth, and so there is no reason to wait. On Tuesday, the American people voted for compromise and action, and the President calls on Congress to come together in that spirit to help create jobs and strengthen our economy.

Telling Abbie the results of the election. Thank you all for such wonderful support! Abbie is a most amazing little girl–brilliant, gorgeous and hilarious. I am so proud of her, and cannot believe how privileged I am to have her as my daughter. This has been a fun ride, and we are amazed at all that has happened. I am very pleased knowing that Barack Obama will continue to lead our beautiful country, and look forward to the incredible future ahead of us!
Here’s a quick glimpse at what happened this week onWhiteHouse.gov:
Veterans Day: This Sunday, November 11 marks Veterans Day. It is a time to show appreciation for the men and women who have served and sacrificed their lives for our country. Tune in towhitehouse.gov/live on Sunday, November 11 at 11:00 am EST to watch the President and First Lady pay tribute to Arlington National Cemetery.
Department of Transportation Assistance: With hurricane recovery efforts underway, the Department of Transportation is also working with state and local officials to help commuters get where they need to go and ensure families have access to housing and other resources. The Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, and the American Association of State Highway Officials have combined their efforts to permit carriers moving temporary mobile housing units from Maryland and Alabama to New Jersey. Read Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood’s blog post here.
FEMA on the Ground: On Tuesday, FEMA personnel continued working alongside state and local partners with disaster response and recovery operations throughout the areas impacted by Hurricane Sandy. They also began preparing additional resources for the Nor’easter storm. FEMA community relations teams started knocking on doors to inform individuals of available financial assistance registration information for financial assistance from FEMA. Learn more about FEMA assistance here.
Rebuilding Businesses after the Storm: Earlier this week, the Small Business Administration encouraged business owners affected by Hurricane Sandy to apply for SBA disaster assistance. SBA Administrator Karen G. Mills explained, “Getting businesses and communities up and running after a disaster is our highest priority at SBA.” Businesses of any size, as well as homeowners and renters in areas within a disaster declaration (New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut), may be eligible to apply for SBA disaster assistance. Learn more about SBA disaster assistance here.
Storm Relief Update: On Saturday, the President met with FEMA leaders and Cabinet officers in Washington DC to ensure all those impacted by Hurricane Sandy know that help is available for them. He asked all Americans to spread the word that anyone looking for assistance—from housing to childcare, medicine and other resources—should call 800-621-FEMA. Watch the President’s full remarks here.

I watched it live and he was so great and I cried because he is still our President. Wow. He really is still ours. What a gift. Hope you are well.
I am well….but being a lazy bum the last couple of days….kinda neglecting my blog duties to eat BBQ ribs and fried catfish….I’ll be back in full force on Monday.
How are you enjoying your weekend?
It is a glorious sunny day around 65 degrees. Windows open. Did some yard work ( I have a little yard) with my younger sister who lives with me. This weather won’t last but the sun on my face felt like heaven. Be lazy and have some BBQ for me.
I do believe I had enough BBQ for everybody in 35 states.
LOL. Ok, if you say so
