Hi Sula,   Last week in Athens, Greece, I had the opportunity to meet with over 100 changemakers from all over the world who have been part of the Obama Foundation Leaders program.  One of the reasons Michelle and I started the Obama Foundation was to support the next generation of leaders, and I’m always so impressed with the work they’re doing in their communities.  Please check out this recap video to learn more about their stories and our time in Athens.   This particular group of leaders is from Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Europe – and they’re working on the most pressing issues facing our world, from climate change and human rights to empowering women and girls. We talked about the challenges they’re facing, and what they’re hoping to do next. Their stories make me feel a little more hopeful about the future – and offer some much-needed inspiration for anyone who wants to get involved in shaping our world. Take a look at our video wrap up to get a taste of our discussions. Now this group will become part of the Obama Leadership Network, our global community of program alumni that connects hundreds of leaders worldwide.  I can’t wait to see what they accomplish next.  Thanks for being a part of this work.  –Barack     Donate to empower rising leaders bringing hope to their communities.

This victory for voters underscores the growing significance of recent fair map wins, like the triumph in Alabama. Rush a donation to All On The Line and help us end gerrymandering and protect voting rights. >> DONATE The dismissal of the Louisiana petition signifies a significant step forward in the ongoing battle to protect and preserve voting rights. With the case now resuming at the 5th Circuit and the district court, and the process for a new map re-engaged, the spotlight remains on working to ensure fairness for all voters. Today’s win validates the importance of continuing the fight for voters’ rights, and the importance of never giving up on our fight for fair maps. Will you make a donation to All On The Line to help us keep up the fight forward for fairness?

But I have a plan to help Democrats regain the lead and take back the House. Here’s the thing: extreme MAGA Republicans have $38 million at their disposal to attack Democrats and everything we stand for. But we have something even better: We have a fierce group of loyal supporters like you who are ready to stand with our party through thick and thin. If grassroots Democrats step up before the critical end-of-quarter deadline in four days, we’ll have the resources to win back the House, rush funds to critical races nationwide, and counter Republican attacks.

We only need to pick up 5 seats to take back the House, and with new Black majority districts being drawn — that’s where we come in!

In 2022, we contacted 3.1 MILLION Black voters to get them to the polls and invested over one million dollars into Black Democratic candidates. In 2024, we can mobilize Black voters in these new districts and TAKE BACK THE HOUSE. If you’re with us, will you chip in $10 to help fund this critical work and take back the House?!
