Administration of Barack Obama, 2015 Remarks to the United States
Administration of Barack Obama, 2015 Remarks to the United States Conference of Mayors January 23, 2015 Thank you! Hey! Good to see you, mayors. Good to see you. All right, everybody, have a seat, have a seat. I would have thought that would bring back bad memories for Kevin, playing that song. [Laughter] I want to thank Kevin for that introduction. I have to say that that introduction is longer than my remarks and more exciting. [Laughter] So I'm feeling a little outshone here by Kevin. But as everybody knows, Kevin has that flair about him; he did when he was a professional basketball player. He, not surprisingly, has brought that flair to his outstanding work in Sacramento, and we're very, very proud of him. So I just want to thank him for his outstanding leadership, as well as the introduction. Give Kevin a big round of applause. I want to thank Stephanie Rawlings-Blake of Baltimore and Mayor Mick Cornett of Oklahoma City for their leadership as well. We are very proud of them. And I want to just thank all of you. We've got—is that playing again, Kevin? [Laughter] We've got over 200 mayors here, representing tens of millions of Americans. And I think as you've seen today, we take our partnership with you seriously because you're often the place where change happens fastest. That's one of the reasons why I named—two of my Cabinet members happen to be former mayors; a former president of this conference, Jerry Abramson of Louisville, is one of my top advisers.

Printed on recycled paper. U.S. Mayors Report on a Decade of Global Climate Leadership Selected Mayor Profiles December 2015 Message As President of The United States Conference of Mayors, I am pleased to lead our USA Mayors during these most challenging times. This is especially true this month as so many colleagues across the globe join together in Paris to bolster our national leaders to act more decisively on our growing climate challenges. USA Mayors and others throughout the world continue to lead and show that local climate action is meaningful and making a difference in curbing harmful carbon emissions. A number of my mayoral colleagues are already in their second decade of climate leadership. This serves as a reminder that a big part of our success in protecting our planet will turn on how well we support and accelerate local level climate action throughout the world. In Paris, we will applaud this local leadership and celebrate the progress being made Stephanie Rawlings-Blake in our cities, articulated so compellingly by USA Mayors in the pages of this report.

Administration of Barack Obama, 2015 Remarks to the United States Conference of Mayors in San Francisco, California June 19
Administration of Barack Obama, 2015 Remarks to the United States Conference of Mayors in San Francisco, California June 19, 2015 The President. Thank you, Mayors! Thank you so much. I love being with mayors. [Laughter] It is great to be here, although I did worry a little bit that Dennis [Kevin]* Johnson would introduce me again. At the White House, he had the old Bulls theme song, and it set a very high bar, as if I was Michael Jordan coming out. [Laughter] And he is a great friend, and I very much appreciate him, as I do so many of the mayors here. I saw a lot of you in Washington in January. I thought, I had such a good time, let's meet this summer as well. And this time, I thought I'd come to you. I want to thank our host, San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee. He was just in the White House for the San Francisco Giants' championship visit. I know how excited the Bay Area is over the Golden State Warriors' championship. I want to thank two outstanding public servants, Governor Jerry Brown and Leader Nancy Pelosi, who are here with us today. And I want to thank this year's leaders of the Conference of Mayors: Kevin Johnson, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, and Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett. I also want to mention a few outstanding mayors who are getting ready to step down: Michael Nutter of Philadelphia has done outstanding work; Greg Ballard of Indianapolis, an outstanding mayor, doing great work with "My Brother's Keeper"—thank you; Annise Parker of Houston, I love Annise; and my dear, old friend, Michael Coleman of Columbus, Ohio.
