A Proclamation on Month of the Military Child, 2023

     This month, we honor the over 2 million children of our service members and veterans, whose support and sacrifice help keep our military strong and our Nation secure.  These young Americans already understand what it means to serve, shouldering the unique demands of military life with courage and tenacity.      Whenever the First Lady and I meet with military children, we are amazed by their strength and selflessness.  Most of these young patriots uproot their lives every few years — starting at new schools, making new friends, and learning new cultures and customs in different corners of the country…

A Proclamation on National Public Health Week, 2023

    The field of public health is grounded in the fundamental truth that we are all in this together — that our health is connected and we are stronger as a Nation when we work together to lift everyone’s well-being.  During National Public Health Week, we celebrate the life-saving work that our public health professionals do to keep Americans healthy and safe.      All of America has seen the importance of public health during the past 3 years.  The pandemic shut down our businesses, closed our schools, and robbed us of so much, including the lives of over one…

A Proclamation on Second Chance Month, 2023

     America has always been a land of second chances, founded on fresh starts, new possibilities, and the belief that every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.  During Second Chance Month, we recommit to helping people forge the new beginnings they have earned and building a safer and more just society.      I believe in redemption — but for hundreds of thousands of Americans released from State and Federal prisons each year, or the nearly 80 million who have an arrest or conviction record, it is not always easy to come by.  A criminal record can prevent…

We were born in Russia, we have lost friends to this murderer… we see how he “zombifies” most and intimidates and beats down the rest. We also know where his weak spots are and what atrocities his regime is committing on a daily basis. Message from the source channel owner.
