Hi, everybody. Today, I want to talk with you about the crisis in Puerto Rico – and why it matters to all of us. Puerto Ricans are American citizens, just like folks in Maine or Oklahoma or New Mexico. And over the last decade, Puerto Rico has suffered through a deep and painful recession – but unlike the rest of the United States, it hasn't recovered. Today,...
I know that folks here have concerns about this law. And I understand it. If you’re running a business right now and you’re seeing these escalating（上升的） health care costs, your instinct is if I’ve got even more laws on top of me, that’s going to increase my costs even more. I understand that suspicion, that skepticism. But the non-partisan congre...
So what we’ve said is let’s make sure that consumers know exactly the kinds of mortgages they’re getting. Let’s make sure that they can’t be steered（控制，驾驶） into these balloon-type payments where there’s no chance that over the long term they’re going to be able to make their payments. Let’s make sure that credit card com...
I’m speaking to you from the bridge of the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson in San Diego. This is one of the biggest ships in the Navy, and on Friday it was home to one of the most unique college basketball games I’ve ever seen. It also gave members of our military and our veterans a chance to unwind（放松，解开） a little bit, and on this Veterans Day, I want to...
Q Thank you. I’m the practice manager at an ophthalmology（眼科学） practice at the Eye Center of Columbus, downtown（市中心区） . It is a great facility that the city of Columbus helped us get in place. There are over 30 ophthalmologists providing specialty care in separate practices, a state-of-the-art ambulatory（流动的，走动的） surgery center. We see tens of thous...
Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Joe Biden and I’m here filling in for President Obama, who is traveling abroad. And I’m here with a simple message: middle-class economics works. Our economy has gone from crisis to recovery to now to resurgence-with the longest streak of consecutive job growth ever recorded in the history of this country and more than all other adva...
Ni hao. It is such a pleasant and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university…Thank you so much for having me. And before I get started today, on behalf of myself and my husband, I just want to say a few very brief words above Malaysian(sic) Airline Flight 370. As my husband has said, the United States is offering as many resources as possible to assi...
I’ve spent some time lately traveling the country and talking with folks outside of Washington. And the number one issue for the people I meet is how we can get back to a place where we’re creating good, middle-class jobs that pay well and offer some security. That’s the idea behind the American Jobs Act. It’s a jobs bill that does two simple things: ...
For the past few weeks, I’ve been visiting folks across America to talk about what we need to do as a country to secure a better bargain for the middle class. I’ve been laying out my ideas for how we can build on the cornerstones of what it means to be middle class in America. A good job. A good education. Affordable health care when you get sick. A secure retire...
Sixty years have come and gone since the communist armies first crossed the 38th Parallel. Within three days, they’d captured Seoul. By the end of the next month, they had driven the Korean army all the way south, to Pusan. And from where things stood in the summer of 1950, it didn’t appear that the Republic of Korea would survive much longer. At the time, many A...
THE PRESIDENT: Good morning, everybody. Right now, across this country, many Americans are sitting at the kitchen table, they’re scanning the classifieds（分类广告） , they’re updating their resumes or sending out another job application, hoping that this time they’ll hear back from a potential employer. And they’re filled with a sense of uncertainty ...
Thank you all for being here for this important moment. These men from all over the world have decided to make gender equality a priority in their lives and in their universities. Thank you for making this commitment. I graduated from university four years ago. I had always dreamed of going, and I know how fortunate I am to have had the opportunity to do so. Brown became my ...
Looking Forward to Visiting Greece In this beautiful season when the pansy（三色堇） flowers are in full bloom, I will soon lead a Chinese government delegation to Greece. My wish is to consolidate（巩固，加强） the traditional friendship between the Chinese and Greek people and open up new prospects for a deeper China-Greece relationship. China and Greece, two ancient civil...
It is a great pleasure to welcome President Karzai to my hometown of Chicago after he extended hospitality to me during my visit to to Kabul recently. During that trip to Afghanistan, we were able to finalize the Strategic Partnership Agreement that reflects a future in which two sovereign（有主权的） nations — the United States and Afghanistan — are operating as...
Earlier this week, we did something that’s never been done here at the White House – we had a Twitter Town Hall. I even sent my first live tweet as President. The questions at the town hall were sent in from across the country and covered all kinds of topics – from jobs and the economy to education and energy. Lots of people also submitted different version...
This week in Libya, we lost four of our fellow Americans. Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods, Sean Smith, and Chris Stevens were all killed in an outrageous attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi. These four Americans represented the very best of our country. Glen and Tyrone had each served America as Navy SEALs for many years, before continuing their service providing security f...
Hi, everybody. This week, I spent some time traveling across Iowa talking with folks about rebuilding an economy where if you work hard, you and your family can get ahead（获得成功）. And along the way, I stopped in at Cascade High School to thank the teachers there for doing such a great job—and wish them luck as they head back to the classroom for this school year. T...
It’s going to help small business owners upgrade their plants and equipment, it will encourage large corporations to get off the sidelines and start putting their profits back into the economy, and it will accelerate $55 billion in tax cuts for businesses that make job-creating investments over the next year. Third, it creates a new initiative to strengthen state progr...
Hi everybody. Earlier this summer, Michelle, Malia, Sasha and I headed west — to the national parks at Carlsbad Caverns and Yosemite. And I've got to say, it was a breath of fresh air. We explored hundreds of feet underground, standing beneath dripping stalactites in New Mexico. We hiked up a misty trail next to a waterfall in California. And I even took a few pict...
Q Mr. President, it’s a privilege for me to be here. You talk about the small business loans. My company is a high-tech company. And we are growing, and we are providing high-tech jobs for Americans. How can we ensure that banking and lending institutions are going to actually lend money to small businesses? There have been numbers of steps done in that way, but so far...
