On Tuesday, President Obama delivered his State of the Union Address. He was talking to Congress, but there's someone he especially wanted to speak to:
You.
That’s why we created Citizen Response -- a new tool that lets you to tell President Obama and his advisers what you thought of his plan to create jobs and build a strong middle class.
In fact, Americans from all over the country have given us their responses. They sat down with President Obama's speech, read through it line by line, and highlighted the ideas that resonated with them. People like you are telling us why the President's proposals matter to their communities.
It's an incredible thing. And you should be part of it.
The responses we've already seen are powerful stuff.
We heard from a veteran named Jason, who said, "I went to college using the GI Bill and was able to buy a home using the VA Home Loan. Please continue to give veterans the benefits they deserve and give them more help for transitioning out of the military back into civilian life."
We heard from a guy named Matt, who told us that he liked what he heard about the minimum wage. "The only way we can bring this country and this economy back to being 'great' again," he said, "is if we can have a more rational benchmark for pay."
Others have said that they support President Obama's call for high-quality preschool for every child. Others have said that it's time for a vote to help reduce gun violence.
This week, the President is on the road talking with people across the country about the State of the Union, but let me tell you what we're doing with stories like yours.
We're crunching the numbers, compiling your feedback, and putting a presentation together to update senior White House staff.
And soon, we're going to share your stories with President Obama so that he has a chance to hear your voices for himself.
So make sure you watch Tuesday's enhanced State of the Union and give us your Citizen Response. You have no idea how important it is:

YOUR RESPONSE TO THE STATE OF OUR UNION
President Obama's State of the Union address is just the beginning; now we want to hear from you. Highlight a passage of the speech that was meaningful to you and tell the President how you're connected to that issue. Then share that part of the speech with your friends.
