Today, President Bush went to Pittsburgh to make remarks at the National Urban League conference, a group that represents black Americans. He said the U.S. economy is showing fresh signs of improvement. He urged Congress to approve languishing legislation to help low-income Americans and those having a hard time finding work.
Then later he greeted Ben Curtis, winner of the 2003 British Open, in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington. Curtis outlasted Tiger Woods and other champion golfers to win the tourney earlier this month.
Also today, President Bush signed the Burmese Freedom and Democracy Act. The legislation is supposed to send a message to the regime of Burma that the regime's continued detention of Aung San Suu Kyi and continued oppression of its people is unacceptable and cannot be allowed to stand.
