White House - West Wing Week 1/10/14 or, "A Year of Action"
Published on Jan 9, 2014
Welcome to the West Wing Week, your guide to everything that's happening at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. This week, the President repeatedly called for Congress to extend Emergency Unemployment Insurance for more than a million Americans, and announced the first five of what will be 20 Promise Zones to help change the odds for kids, as the War on Poverty turned 50. And as a polar vortex descended on much of the country, the President's Science Advisor explained why. That's January 3rd to January 9th "A Year of Action."

p.s. There is always a tiny tidbit tacked on way at the end.
