Many of you have probably already recieved this, but I wanted to take this opportunity to share it and thank each and everyone who helped change history in America.  As President Barack Obama says, this "millions of Americans now have coverage".  I am reminded of the periodic tears, on March 23, 2010, that would occur when I received each email and text of thanks and congratulation for helping make "Obamacare" a reality.  The truth is, I, had the help of so many of you, without whom, this historic moment on March 23 2010 never would have occurred.  To you I am humbly thankful for the history we made together.  This is a Thank You from our President that I am deeply compelled to share with you.  We were there together in that great moment and today we share another moment with a thankful President Barack Obama.
 
Galen (Respectfully)

Subject: Thank you, Galen

I had to take a moment to say thank you.

Galen, you made history.

A long line of organizers fought for nearly 100 years to make health care reform a reality, and now we're seeing the results. Millions of Americans have health insurance today, thanks to reform -- some for the first time in their lives.

The work you did is how real, lasting change gets made, and I hope it will be remembered for years to come.

I'm so happy your name will be there, alongside mine, as part of OFA's permanent record of the people who made health care reform happen.

If you know anyone else who deserves to be recognized, tell them to add their name here:

Anyone who was part of this decades-long fight will tell you it was never easy, but it was always the right thing to do. Teddy Roosevelt knew it. Harry Truman knew it. Teddy Kennedy sure knew it.

No matter how hard it got, the results we're seeing today make it all worthwhile. Millions of Americans now have coverage, and even more have better health care, thanks to the work you did.

Take a moment to let that sink in.

It's proof that when people come together and fight for what they believe in, real, lasting change is possible.

I can't thank you enough,

Barack Obama
