White House Week

This week President Obama launched his own Facebook page! In his first post, President Obama discussed climate change and the upcoming meeting with world leaders in Paris to discuss action on this serious issue. President Obama's Facebook page will serve as a new place online to engage directly with the American people, with videos and posts coming exclusively from him.
