What Has Obama Done?

We're not voting for President today, but on election day when politics is on the forefront of your mind, check out this website to remind yourself what President Obama has accomplished in the first two years of his term.

If you're scurrying out the door to hit the polls, we've posted a few achievements for you now:
  • Expanded hate crime law in the US to include sexual orientation through the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act
  • Extended Benefits to same-sex partners of federal employees
  • Signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, restoring basic protections against pay discrimination for women and other workers
  • Provided the Department of Veterans Affairs with more than $1.4 billion to improve services to America's Veterans
