May 26, 2011
I’m delighted to be here and I want to thank Tim Lordan for the work that he does for the Internet Education Foundation in his leadership in guiding the Congressional Internet Caucus Advisory Committee. He does an outstanding job, along with the co-chairs both in the Senate and in the House. I’m very proud to be one of the co-chairs along with my wonderful colleague Bob Goodlatte. I often tease him and say that he loves to spend more time in my district than maybe even his own. It is […]

Britain's Plans for Clean Brexit - Jan. 17, 2017
January 17, 2017
May gave this address at Lancaster House. A little over six months ago, the British people voted for change. They voted to shape a brighter future for our country. They voted to leave the European Union and embrace the world. And they did so with their eyes open: accepting that the road ahead will be uncertain at times, but believing that it leads towards a brighter future for their children – and their grandchildren too. And it is the job of this Government to deliver it. That means more than […]

Remarks at the National Press Club - Sept. 2, 2015
September 2, 2015
The first thing I want to say today is that I am the proud daughter of Indian immigrant parents, who reminded my brothers, my sister, and me every day how blessed we were to live in this country. Why is that the first thing I tell you? You might think it has something to do with the events this summer in Charleston and taking down the Confederate flag. It doesn’t. I have been saying it since long before this past June. In fact, it was the first line in just […]

MRS. OBAMA: Well, hello everyone. How are you doing? AUDIENCE: Great. MRS. OBAMA: Okay. All right, we’re just going to break this up one moment and just say, is this not cool? (Laughter.) I mean, come on. You’re in the White House. There are some of the most impressive people in fashion here to teach you all, and to reach out and to mentor you. And there’s food. (Laughter.)
