I received this email from the U.S. President’s staff: It reads as follows:

“Friend —

The President and congressional leaders reached an agreement last night to meet our financial obligations and reduce our deficit.

Many people will have lots to say about this deal — but the President wanted to talk to you directly.

Watch the video:

Please share this video with everyone you know.

Thanks,

What still remains to be done at the time of this writing is a Congressional vote on the debt agreement.
