Protecting America and Our Veterans
President Obama fulfilled two of his most important national security promises by ending the war in Iraq and killing Osama Bin Laden and most of al-Qaeda's top leadership.  Helping returning veterans has been another major priority - President Obama boosted the Veterans Affairs budget and streamlined procedures to ensure that veterans receive the highest quality benefits and care for their sacrifice and selfless service.

- Extended education and training benefits to 400,000 veterans and their families
- Provided businesses with tax credits up to $9,600 for hiring returning veterans


Protecting Social Security and Medicare
President Obama will continue to ensure Social Security's solvency and guaranteed benefits for Florida's seniors and for future generations.  The President's health care reform law has already enhanced and strengthened Medicare and is providing free preventive care like mammograms and cancer screenings.

- Medicare "doughnut hole" closed by 2020
- Cut prescription drug costs for 238,000 Florida seniors by an average of $600
- Eliminated caps on health insurance coverage


Improving Education and Making College More Affordable
President Obama streamlined the government's tuition loan program by taking Wall Street banks out of the process of student loan administration which produced efficiencies that freed up billions of additional dollars in tuition loans for hundreds of thousands of college students.

- Increased Pell Grant funding by 50%
- Extended college tax credits by more than $2,000
- Helped keep more than 40,000 Florida teachers in the classroom


Fighting for the Middle Class
President Obama has cut taxes for small businesses 18 times and for all working families including over 7 million Florida families who saved an average of over $500.  Through May 2012, the economy has added more than 4.3 million private sector jobs over 27 consecutive months of job growht.  But more needs to be done including the President's pledge to continue investing in American energy, American manufacturing and skills for American workers.

President Obama is moving our country forward


"The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our gross domestic product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on the ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity but because it is the surest route to our common good."  Barack Obama
