John --

I've got 12 months left to squeeze every ounce of change I
can while I'm still in office. And that's what I intend to
do.

We've done a lot of remarkable things together this year,
and it's because of committed citizens like you that this
country keeps moving forward. You keep proving the cynics
wrong.

On January 12, I'll be giving my last State of the Union
address. I want you to watch, and say you're ready to keep
up the fight in 2016 -- because your voice matters just as
much as mine does.

OFA is one of the groups getting people fired up to take
action in 2016. Say you'll watch the State of the Union,
and commit to taking action next year:

When we took office, we were losing nearly 750,000 jobs a
month. But over the last 69 months, our businesses have
created more than 13.7 million new jobs -- the longest
streak of private-sector job growth on record -- and the
unemployment rate is down to 5 percent.

For the first time more than 90 percent of Americans are now
covered, and more than 17 million people have gained health
insurance under Obamacare. Insurance companies can't
discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions, or
charge women more just for being women.

And America is now leading by example on climate change. The
Clean Power Plan will cut carbon pollution from power plants
by 32 percent by 2030. We've cut our oil imports by more
than half, while doubling clean energy production from wind,
solar, and geothermal -- creating steady sources of good
jobs that can't be outsourced.

Even as our economy is growing, America has cut our carbon
pollution overall more than any other advanced nation on
Earth. And we just helped secure the most ambitious global
climate agreement in history.

These are your accomplishments, and that's what I want to
celebrate with you on January 12. As long as you're out
there organizing, on whatever issue you're organizing
around, America has a bright future ahead.

Let's lean into that in 2016. Add your name today to say
you'll watch the State of the Union, and OFA will be in
touch soon:

Thanks -- and happy New Year,

Barack Obama
