Dear Colleague,
I am writing to ask for your help in our efforts to ensure that our youth our prepared for their
financial futures. In December 2009, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and Education
Secretary Arne Duncan announced the National Financial Capability
Challenge.<http://www.challenge.treas.gov/> They said that along with getting the economy
back on track and getting smarter about financial regulation, we also need to make sure all
Americans - but especially our youth - get the financial education they need to help them take
responsibility for their financial futures. The Challenge - an awards program for educators
and high schools students that aims to encourage the teaching of personal finance is an
important first step in this effort.
Our goal is to get one million high school students to take the Challenge, which includes a
voluntary online exam, by April 9, 2010. To make that happen, we'll need thousands of
educators from across the country to register and get their students prepared. Two thousand
educators have already signed up. It's a good start, but we have a long way to go.
Please support our effort to reach out to high school teachers - and other educators working
with high school students age 13-19, such as librarians, youth group leaders, and after-school
program staff - to encourage them to sign up for the Challenge at
www.challenge.treas.gov<http://www.challenge.treas.gov> by March 14.
All participating educators will receive access to a free online educators toolkit and
personalized awards certificates, and educators in states with the highest participation rates
will earn special distinction. But more important, their students will benefit from the skills
they can gain from financial education.
o Send a custom message directly to educators and/or people who work with them asking
them to view the video message from Secretary
Duncan<http://www.challenge.treas.gov/video.aspx> and register for the
Challenge<http://www.challenge.treas.gov/educator_SignUp.aspx> by March 14th.
o Include a link to the National Financial Capability Challenge website on your own
site<http://www.challenge.treas.gov/link_to_us.htm>
o Include the Challenge in your organization's social networking (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
o Offer instructional support to educators new to this topic (e.g. linking local money experts
with educators)
Together we can raise the profile of youth financial education, engage thousands of educators
in the teaching of personal finance, and reach high school students all across the country.

These organizations have partnered together with a bold goal of reducing childhood obesity
by 2015. The event was mostly attended by health professions working in the area of
childhood obesity. I am sure that there were other elected officials besides the presenter
(Mayor Chip Johnson, Hernando, MS) in attendance or watching via the webinar, if not there
should have been since the information that was presented was staggering.
It wasn?t the fact that 17% of our children are obese that struck me, that?s something that
you can look around and see every day, nor was it the fact that the majority of children are
fromminority (mostly Black and Hispanic population) and from low income families. It was
the fact that this generation of children are the first to suffer from adult diseases Type II
Diabetes, Hypertension, High Cholesterol, Fatty Liver disease to name a fewand thatthis is
the first generation that isn?t expected to outlive their parents.
Mayor Johnson spoke of what actions he has taken in his city to address this problem and
the issue of creating a healthy community as a whole and the benefits it has had. He has
been able to reduce the town?s employees insurance cost by introducing a health/wellness
and exercise program, thereby as an unintended consequence, been able to give the
employees a raise with some of the money saved. The town also has attracted new
businesses for economic development, since companies are looking for healthy towns and
cities to relocate in. Dr. Jamie Jeffrey, Charleston, WV spoke about the benefits that
children have in their life when healthy eating and exercise become a part of their daily
routine. Rev. Michal Minor of Hernando, MS, national director of H.O.P.E. HHS Partnership,
National Baptist Convention, USA, Inc. spoke about the importance of the faith-based
community partnering with elected officials, non-profits and schools in addressing this
growing epidemic and the success he has had in MS.
Although everyone spoke about the importance of partnerships and collaboration, they also
stressed that we should not forget the ?fire-starter? and the power of one. We must
remember that it is the environment and lifestyles that have brought about these health
problems that not only our children are experiencing, but our society as a whole. I can?t
help but remember the words of NCBM President Kevin Johnson, when he spoke of how our
Black communities are always on the bottom of the ?good? list and at the ?top? of the bad
list, this is one more list that we are on the top, but we as elected officials have the ability
to move our towns to the bottom.
The help is out there for us to be able to reverse this trend in our communities, the question is how
we are going to take this information and augment it into our towns. I have listed below
othercontacts (besides the ones listed above)for more information.

Dear Mayor,
President Obama announced today that 7.1 million Americans signed up for
insurance under the Affordable Care Act, surpassing the White House goal of 7
million.
We applaud President Obama on this amazing accomplishment and also applaud the
hard work of our mayors that helped to make this possible through the NCBM
Outreach and Enrollment Initiative, as well as all of your local efforts.
Please continue to send us your ACA enrollment events and success stories to
NCBMoffice@gmail.com. The winner to our March Enrollment Madness Slam Dunk
Contest will be announced soon.
Please see an article below on this important achievement.

White House: 7.1 million have signed up under ACA
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2014/04/01/obama-aca-7-millionenrolled/7162291/
WASHINGTON ? President Obama said Thursday that 7.1 million Americans have
signed up for insurance under his new health care law, proving that "the Affordable
Care Act is here to stay."
"This law is doing what it's supposed to do ? it's working," Obama said in a celebratory
ceremony with supporters in the White House Rose Garden.
Obama also denounced Republican attacks on the new system, claming that "the
debate over repealing this law is over." If the GOP continues to pursue to repeal,
Obama said Republicans will have to explain to millions of newly insured Americans
why they want to take away their policies.
Instead, Obama urged Republicans to work with him in the months ahead to improve
the law where needed, including expansion of Medicaid in states that have resisted the
plan.
The new law hasn't "completely fixed our long-broken health care system," Obama
said, but it has "made our health care system a lot better."
The end of the enrollment period for this year commenced a new struggle between the
parties to define the landmark health care law, eight months before congressional
elections.
Republicans who had questioned whether the administration could reach its enrollment
goal vowed again to repeal and replace the law, saying it is creating higher premiums
and worse health care.
Obama "is taking a premature victory lap for his signature health care law," said
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus.
With the announcement that came hours after the March 31 deadline to sign up for
coverage, the Obama administration has cleared the initial projection for enrollees set
by the Congressional Budget Office ? a goal that had seemed out of reach after a
rocky launch to the online federal marketplace last fall.
"We surpassed the 7 million mark with the over 200,000 people who enrolled yesterday
in states run by the federal government alone," White House Press Secretary Jay
Carney said. "When we get numbers in from the rest of the states and people who are
trying to sign up by the deadline and are finishing now, even more people will be
covered."
After meeting with Obama at the White House on Tuesday, House Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., cheered the administration crossing what was seen as a crucial
threshold for the law.
"Many more people now have affordable, quality health care," Pelosi said.
After a surge of last-minute enrollment on Monday ? the technical deadline to sign up
for health care or face a penalty ? administration officials began expressing confidence
that they would meet or exceed the 7 million mark for signups.
MORE: ACA supporter offers 10 ways to improve enrollment
MORE: With insurance enrollment closed for most, what's next?
In recent weeks, the White House had been buoyed by a surge of interest by
Americans in the laws as the deadline for signing up drew near. There were 2.9 million
visits to the website over the weekend, and last week they counted more phone calls
from Americans inquiring about signing up for insurance that they saw in all of
February.
Last-minute consumers overwhelmed the federal web site on deadline day as outages
and intermittent delays slowed customers. More than 2 million people visited the web
site by Monday evening.
Carney suggested that Obama had a hunch the administration would reach the 7
million mark as Monday approached. Early Tuesday morning, aides confirmed to him
during his presidential daily briefing that the goal had been met.
Republicans continued to attack the law on Tuesday, arguing that too little is known
about the 7 million enrollees, including how many were previously uninsured and how
many have in fact paid the premiums.
GOP members vowed to maintain their repeal efforts, and to make health care a major
issue in the November congressional elections.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said "our constituents are having an
unpleasant interaction" with what he called "Obamacare."
"Whether they can sign up for a policy or not, they are discovering, of course, higher
premiums, a higher deductible," McConnell said. "Many of them are losing their jobs
and so it is really a catastrophe for the country both for the healthcare providers and
the consumers."
Echoing McConnell, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said that "the problem
was never just about the website ? it's the whole law."
Republicans also disputed Obama's claim they want to deny people insurance.
Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said people are "losing the doctors and plans that
they like," and "we must replace this fundamentally-flawed law with patient-centered
solutions that will actually lower health care costs and help create jobs."
In his White House remarks, Obama said that changing the law now will hurt people
who have signed up, saying at one point: "Why are folks working so hard for people
not to have health insurance?"
The president warned that there will likely be future "challenges" with with the law -possibly including more website "stumbles" -- but lawmakers should work together to
address them. Obama decried "tall tales" that Republican critics have invented about
the law, and warned that "history is not kind to those who would deny Americans their

Indivizible,
After hearing President Obama's speech about Trayvon Martin today, Mayor
Johnson was moved to send an email to the National Conference of Black Mayors
about this critical time in our nation's history. Please take a moment to read the
Mayor's email below.
dear mayors:
this has been a challenging time in our community in light of developments relating
to the trayvon martin case. after hearing president obama's heartfelt and powerful
remarks this afternoon, i felt compelled to write to you today. the president's speech
strikes at the very core of why we exist as an organization representing the african
american community, and why it is incumbent on us to use our power to create
dialogue around these issues.
national conference of black mayors - our role
while we are making great progress in our efforts to get our organization's house in
order, we do so with renewed purpose. without a foundation of integrity,
accountability and transparency, ncbm cannot influence the national dialogue. that is
why it's so important for us to continue our rebuilding efforts and ensure that ncbm
takes its rightful place on the national stage.
president's speech and statement by trayvon martin's parents
if you haven't already done so, please view president obama's speech about trayvon
martin, as well as the comments by trayvon martin's parents. here are the links to
these statements:
