I called on all Americans to give at least two years of their lives'the equivalent of 4,000 hours'to the service of others.
George W. Bush
The Public Record
George W. Bush is the 43rd President of the United States, serving from January 20, 2001, to January 20, 2009. A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as the Governor of Texas from January 17, 1995, until December 21, 2000. His presidency was marked by significant events, including the September 11 attacks in 2001 and the subsequent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Bush's domestic policies included tax cuts, education reform, and Medicare prescription drug benefits.
I hereby find that the furnishing of defense articles and services to the Governments of Palau, Kiribati, and Tuvalu will strengthen the security of the United States and promote world peace.
I commend the United States-Australia Social Security Agreement and related documents.
We will not tolerate evil and that we will—the collective good will of our country, the gathering momentum of millions of acts of kindness will define the very nature of America.
The job of Government is to serve as a catalyst to capture that compassion.
I established by Executive Order 13254 of January 29, 2002, the USA Freedom Corps in order to encourage service and volunteerism in America.
We defend freedom, and we'll continue to defend freedom to make sure that our children and grandchildren can grow up in a free world.
My vision of the gathering momentum of millions of acts of compassion and kindness includes Americans in military and civilian service, Americans engaged in meeting local community and national needs, and Americans participating in service…
My Administration's policy is to foster a culture of service, citizenship, and responsibility by promoting, expanding, and enhancing service opportunities for all Americans.
Today, he visited the People's Emergency Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and met with local volunteers to lead a conversation about service and the USA Freedom Corps initiative that he launched just over a month ago.
Philadelphia is better off as a result of your daily concern for your fellow human beings.
The Homeland Security Advisory System will provide a comprehensive and effective means to disseminate information regarding the risk of terrorist attacks to Federal, State, and local authorities and to the American people.
I applaud the House for working in a bipartisan fashion to pass legislation that strengthens border security while recognizing the importance of keeping families together and making America a more welcoming society.
I have directed my Cabinet to report back to me within 30 days on ways their Departments and Agencies can contribute to service opportunities for all Americans.
The Homeland Security Advisory System is designed to measure and evaluate terrorist threats and communicate them to the public in a timely manner.
There's something greater than yourself in life, and it's worth serving.
You have a responsibility as a champ to make the right choices and to set a clear example for others.
