Michelle and I mourn the passing of Clifford Alexander. He was an extraordinary public servant—who became the first African American Secretary of the Army—and an even better friend. We miss him already. https://t.co/D4H2MpFbDV

Happy birthday, Malia! No matter how sophisticated, accomplished, beautiful, and gracious a young woman you’ve become—you’ll always be my baby. And I will always be here to lift you up. https://t.co/feS6ayFDOY

Happy Fourth of July! 

As we celebrate today, let's thank our armed forces and their families for their service to our country.

And let's recommit to fighting for our democracy—there's still so much work to be done to perfect our union.

The Stonewall Uprising helped galvanize a movement for LGBTQ+ rights. The progress we’ve made in the years since is a testament to what happens when people organize and demand change. But we need to do more to safeguard LGBTQ+ rights and expand on those hard-earned victories.

In 2016, I was proud to designate the Stonewall National Monument as the first national monument to tell the story of the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights. https://t.co/sTddgnS6DS

Climate change is no longer just about the future that we're trying to protect for our children or our grandchildren; it's about the reality we're living with now. That’s why it’s more urgent now than ever before that Congress pass @POTUS’ climate and clean energy investments.

The 6-3 decision strikes a blow to the EPA’s authority to regulate power plant emissions—paving the way to dismantle some of the most impactful provisions of the Clean Air Act and limit our ability to reduce carbon pollution.

No challenge poses a greater threat to our future than a changing climate. Every day, we’re feeling the impact of climate change, and today’s Supreme Court decision is a major step backward.

As president, I saw Chancellor Merkel lead through crises with her wise pragmatism, good humor, and unrelenting moral compass—and I feel lucky to call her a friend. Grateful for the chance to visit the @NMAAHC today, a reminder that America is a constant work in progress. https://t.co/CggYWllm31
