Read the Original Letter Written by the Pennsylvania Woman Whose Story the President Told Today:
Today, speaking from the Catholic Health Association’s annual assembly in Washington, D.C., President Obama outlined the state of health care in America, now that the Affordable Care Act has become part of the fabric of our health care system. In it, he told the story of Debra Lea Oren of Palmer, Pennsylvania. Debra, who suffers from osteoarthritis so severe it put her in a wheelchair, couldn’t walk or stand for years. She was in constant pain.
Today, she’s back on her feet. Here’s why:
Debra was able to enroll in an affordable health plan that covered the surgery she needed to help her walk on her own again. As a result, she can walk to the grocery store. She can cook and exercise. She can get herself to her doctors’ appointments on her own two feet (and two new knees).
“I walk with my husband Michael and hold hands,” she wrote to the President in February. “It’s like a whole new world for me.”
This is what health reform has meant to millions of Americans.

What Am I: Can you guess what these charts are telling you?
Thanks to five years of the Affordable Care Act, health care looks a lot different in America. How different?
Find out by taking this quiz to see if you can figure out exactly what the President’s health care law is doing for millions of Americans across the country.
Begin Quiz
1. What am I?
- Percentage of people watching Grey’s Anatomy
- Percentage of Americans without health insurance
- Number of emergency room visits in the U.S.
- Total number of sick days used by workers in the U.S.
Well done. In fact, more than 16 million Americans have found an affordable, quality health care plan under the ACA, causing a cliff-like drop in the number of Americans living without the health insurance they need. And that’s a great thing!
Not quite. It’s actually the percentage of Americans without health insurance since 2000. See how it takes a nosedive recently? That’s thanks to the ACA, which became law on March 23, 2010. Under this law, more than 16 million Americans have gained affordable, quality health care coverage, driving our country’s uninsured rate to a new low.
Next Question
2. What am I?
- Projected deficit reduction due to the ACA
- Projected reduction in number of uninsured Americans
- Projected reduction in patients harmed by hospital error
- Projected temperature in Antarctica
Nice one. According to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, the ACA will generate substantial deficit savings that grow over time, for a total savings of $1.7 trillion over two decades. This is important because lower long-term deficits have a domino-effect of higher national income and wages over time.
So close. This chart is actually a look at how much the ACA will reduce the deficit over time. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office determined that the ACA will generate a total savings of $1.7 trillion for our deficit over two decades. This is important because lower long-term deficits have a domino-effect of higher national income and wages over time.
Next Question
3. What am I?
- Drop in young adults with health coverage
- Drop in percent of patients harmed by hospital error
- Drop in government spending on health care
- Drop in Americans with health insurance
Right! The Affordable Care Act has helped reduce multiple different kinds of “patient harms,” including adverse drug events, pressure ulcers, infections, and more. The reduction in patient harms has helped prevent an estimated 50,000 deaths.
It’s actually the drop in patients harmed. Surprised? The Affordable Care Act has helped reduce multiple different kinds of “patient harms,” including adverse drug events, pressure ulcers, infections, and more, and the reduction in patient harms has helped prevent an estimated 50,000 deaths.
Next Question
4. What am I?
- Percent of Americans who like pie charts
- The first dogs’ approval rating
- Percent of Marketplace enrollees who receive tax credits to help pay monthly premiums
- Percent of Americans who visited the emergency room last year
Nailed it. The overwhelming majority of Americans who shopped on health care marketplaces qualified for tax credits, which are helping millions of Americans afford the coverage they need.
Nope! It’s actually the percent of Americans who qualified for tax credits while shopping on health care marketplaces, allowing them to afford the coverage they need.
Next Question
5. What am I?
- Americans who no longer have lifetime limits
- People who have access to free preventive services
- Self-diagnoses on webmd each year
- People no longer at risk of being denied coverage
Correct! Before the ACA, someone with a pre-existing condition, like cancer, could be denied the coverage they needed. The ACA prohibited that, ensuring that 129 million Americans will always have access to affordable, quality coverage.
Nope. Before the ACA, someone with a pre-existing condition, like cancer, could be denied the coverage they needed. The ACA prohibited that, ensuring that 129 million Americans will always have access to affordable, quality coverage.
Next Question
6. What am I?
- Number of death panels created under the ACA
- Number of free preventive services now available
- Number of young adults who can stay on their parents’ plans
- Number of women who have access to birth control with no co-pay
Exactly. Zero death panels were created as a result of the Affordable Care Act.
Sorry, but the correct answer is zero death panels. The Affordable Care Act has never created one, nor will it ever.

1. Who was the first President to propose national health insurance?
- President George W. Bush in 2003
- President Theodore Roosevelt in 1912
- President Thomas Jefferson in 1804
- President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934
Well done! You’re off to a great start. Former President Theodore Roosevelt was the first to propose a national health insurance plan while on the campaign trail in 1912. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america
Wrong! Former President Theodore Roosevelt was actually the first to propose a national health insurance plan while on the campaign trail in 1912. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america

2. Who said it? “An all-directions reform of our health care system—so that every citizen will be able to get quality health care at reasonable cost regardless of income and regardless of area of residence—remains an item of highest priority on my unfinished agenda for America.”
- President Barack Obama in 2009
- President Richard Nixon in 1972
- President Bill Clinton in 1994
- President Ronald Reagan in 1987
You’re correct! President Richard Nixon said this in a 1972 address to Congress about his proposal to require employers to provide a minimum level of health insurance to their employees.
Sorry, try again. This was actually President Richard Nixon in a 1972 address to Congress on his proposal to require employers to provide a minimum level of health insurance to their employees.
Next Question
3. Who said it? “At long last, after decades of false starts, we must make this our most urgent priority, giving every American health security, health care that can never be taken away, health care that is always there.”
- President Bill Clinton in 1993
- President Barack Obama in 2010
- President George W. Bush in 2001
- President Jimmy Carter in 1977
That’s right! President Bill Clinton proposed one of the boldest efforts yet to pass health care reform in 1993. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america
Nope! This was actually President Bill Clinton in 1993. He proposed one of the boldest efforts yet to expand coverage, promote competition, and control costs. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america
Next Question
4. Who said it? “We can and we must strive now to assure the availability of and accessibility to the best health care for all Americans, regardless of age or geography or economic status.”
- President George Washington in 1795
- President Dwight Eisenhower in 1953
- President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965
- President George H. W. Bush in 1990
You really know your stuff! President Lyndon Johnson said this to Congress shortly before signing Medicare and Medicaid into law about the need to provide health care coverage to elderly, poor, and disabled Americans. Today, those vital programs insure more than 100 million Americans. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america
You’re off the mark. It was actually President Lyndon Johnson who said this to Congress shortly before signing Medicare and Medicaid into law about the need to provide health care coverage to elderly, poor, and disabled Americans. Today, those vital programs insure more than 100 million Americans. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america
Next Question
5. Who said it? “I am not the first President to take up this cause, but I am determined to be the last.”
- President Bill Clinton in 1993
- President Barack Obama in 2009
- President George W. Bush in 2001
- President John F. Kennedy in 1961
Boom! You’re pretty smart. President Obama said this to a joint session of Congress in 2009. On March 23, 2010, he signed the Affordable Care Act into law, which has already helped more than 16 million Americans gain access to quality, affordable health coverage. More at wh.gov/healthcare-in-america
Wrong answer. It was actually President Obama who said this to a joint session of Congress in 2009. On March 23, 2010, he signed the Affordable Care Act into law.

Celebrating Immigration Heritage Month: My Father’s Journey to Citizenship
June marks Immigrant Heritage Month — and people across the country and across the Obama Administration are sharing their American stories. Whether you’ve recently embarked on your first day as an American or want to share how your ancestors came to arrive here, we want to hear from you. Add your voice to the conversation today.
Immigration is sacred to our nation because our country has long been a beacon of hope and opportunity for people from around the world. Today, 41.3 million foreign-born residents live in the United States.
Perhaps more profoundly – with the exception of Native Americans – we are all descendants of people who came from someplace else. Regardless of when we arrived or where we came from, Americans remain bound together by fidelity to a set of ideas that we all are created equal, and that anyone can succeed if they work hard, regardless of the circumstances of their birth.
I recently had the special privilege of being the first to congratulate a group of newly minted American citizens at a naturalization ceremony on Ellis Island. Each new citizen started his or her own journey in eight different countries. But, one of the new citizen’s journey made this particular ceremony fill a special place in my heart: my father.

The Letter Senator Kennedy Sent Me:
Today, President Obama sent the following message to the White House email list. In it, he talks about a letter from the late Senator Edward Kennedy on the importance of reforming our country’s health care system.
Didn’t get the email? Sign up for updates here.
On a day in early September of 2009, I received the following letter from Senator Edward Kennedy. He’d written in May of that year, shortly after he learned that his illness was terminal. He asked that it be delivered to me upon his death.
It is a letter about the cause of his career — what he called “that great unfinished business of our society” — health care reform.
“What we face,” he writes, “is above all a moral issue; that at stake are not just the details of policy, but fundamental principles of social justice and the character of our country.”
