$\"NewsHub\"$ \u201cI\u2019m just beginning to write my remarks. But I\u2019m thinking about them as a chance to say thank you for this amazing journey, to celebrate the ways you\u2019ve changed this country for the better these past eight years, and to offer some thoughts on where we all go from here,\u201d Mr. Obama said in a blog post on the White House website.
President Obama is planning an all-out push to save his signature health care program when he gets back to Washington from his Hawaiian vacation….
The president will deliver the address next Tuesday from Chicago, which is where he lived before becoming president.
\u201cSince 2009, we\u2019ve faced our fair share of challenges, and come through them stronger. That\u2019s because we have never let go of a belief that has guided us ever since our founding\u2014our conviction that, together, we can change this country for the better,\u201d he added.
The announcement comes as the first family returns from their annual two-week holiday vacation in Hawaii.
Mr. Obama is set to deliver the address 10 days before Donald Trump\u2019s inauguration. The Obamas plan to stay in Washington, D. C. until Sasha, their younger daughter, graduates from high school.
It\u2019s unclear if Mr. Obama plans to do a final press conference. The last one he held with the White House press corps was at the end of December, just before he departed for Hawaii.<\/p>\n
