On Friday afternoon, President Obama traveled to Charleston, South Carolina to honor the life of pastor and state senator Clementa Pinckney -- one of the nine who lost their lives in the horrific June 17 shooting at Charleston's Emanuel AME Church.

In his eulogy, the President highlighted just how much Reverend Pinckney accomplished during his 41 years of life -- and explained how even in the midst of our sadness, this tragedy has allowed our nation to "see where we've been blind."

 Quote of the Day

"After more than 50 votes in Congress to repeal or weaken this law; after a Presidential election based in part on preserving or repealing this law; after multiple challenges to this law before the Supreme Court, we can now say this for certain: The Affordable Care Act still stands, it is working, and it is here to stay."
