Dad, husband, President, citizen.

Let’s go Team USA! Good luck at the World Cup, @USMNT.

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the love and support that @MichelleObama has poured into me over the years. Her story — from her South Side roots to the White House and beyond — is a central part of the Obama Presidential Center.

[The Obama Foundation @ObamaFoundation]

Bo and Sunny had no idea they were living at the most famous address in the world. They just wanted scratches behind their ears, a patch of sun to lie in, and some wide open spaces to run. That energy is alive at the Obama Presidential Center.

Recently, @MichelleObama reflected on her family’s life in the White House. In this new video, she explains how part of the Life in the White House exhibit at the Museum featuring Bo and Sunny—-a playful comic strip called "Our Life in the White House"—was designed so every child, including those who can't see, can experience the joy those two brought to the White House.

"The fur is rendered in different textures, so a child can run their fingers across it and feel the comfort Bo and Sunny gave to us," Mrs. Obama said. "It's a reminder that home is being with the people—and pups—we love, no matter the setting."

The Obama Presidential Center opens on June 19 in Chicago's Jackson Park.

It was great meeting with the talented folks who’ll be working at the Obama Presidential Center. We're excited to welcome everybody here soon!

[In Pursuit USA @InPursuitUSA]

President Barack Obama (@BarackObama) writes about Abraham Lincoln and what held the Union together when everything was working to pull it apart.

At the center is Lincoln's argument that individual liberty and the common good aren't opposing forces, and that a democracy survives only when its citizens keep choosing to bind their fates together.

As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Barney Frank was one of a kind. For more than three decades in Congress, he fought tirelessly for the people of Massachusetts, helped make housing more affordable, stood up for the rights of LGBTQ+ Americans, and helped pass one of the most sweeping financial reforms in history designed to protect consumers and prevent another financial crisis. Barney’s passion and wit were second to none, and our thoughts are with his family today.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The decisions made by state supreme courts touch every part of our lives. And that’s especially important when voting rights and basic freedoms are being challenged.

Today, voters in Georgia can stand up for fairness and integrity by electing Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan to Georgia’s Supreme Court.

Let’s get this one right, Georgia. Find your nearest polling station and cast your ballot before 7pm ET:  https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB

[Rolling Stone @RollingStone]

For Rolling Stone, @BarackObama writes about how the power of song has shown the country the way forward.

"Music has always had the ability to speak to us, and for us, in a way nothing else can."

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Proud of our @ObamaFoundation Scholars and the incredible work they’re doing in their communities. https://t.co/vkszh6UXA5

[Gina Hinojosa @GinaHinojosaTX]

2026 is the year we're going to make change in Texas. But I need every single one of you in this fight with us. Text TEXAS to 80191 or visit https://t.co/473GFDhYRM to join our campaign.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

When I was a student at UT, I registered voters for Obama’s 2008 campaign — a campaign of hope.

President Obama just showed up at UT and told young Texans: “Now you have the chance to join a campaign of hope.”

Sign up today: https://t.co/HnkjPBix8K

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It was great joining @JamesTalarico and @GinaHinojosaTX today in Texas. They're working hard to make a difference in the lives of all Texans, and will be able to do even more as your next Senator and Governor.

Let’s get it done, Texas!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

I first met Clark Reynolds when he was just three years old at our Black History Month reception at the White House.

Over the last ten years, it's been wonderful getting updates about his life through his letters. Check out how he’s doing now:

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

This Mother’s Day, I’m thinking about my mom, and all the lessons she taught me. I'm proud to honor her memory with the Ann Dunham Water Terrace at the Obama Presidential Center.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Wishing all the moms out there a wonderful Mother’s Day!

To @MichelleObama, I’m grateful for all the ways you’ve shown up for our daughters and our family over the years. We love you.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important.

Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin, the only two candidates in the race with strong records of standing up for all Georgians.

Early voting is already underway and Election Day is May 19th. Find out where you can vote at https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It was great talking to Stephen and the inspiring young people we’ve worked with at the @ObamaFoundation on the @ColbertLateShow.

When the Obama Presidential Center opens this June 19, my hope is that this will be a place where people can come together to meet, learn, and work with each other to create change in their communities. Learn more at https://t.co/ahkDMKalIn.
