The Brits That Cracked America [Infographic]

Posted: 16 Jul 2013 09:05 AM PDT

The world is shrinking—or it certainly seems that way, anyhow. Mobile technology, the Internet, and recent advances in communication and transportation have brought us closer together than ever before. So it is unsurprising that British and American cultures seem to be bleeding into one another more and more each day. Many of the same heartthrobs and celebrity superstars we cherish here in the UK are equally, and sometimes even more, famous in the US. From sports stars like David Beckham to music divas like Adele, Brits today have an enormous impact on American culture and exert a social influence that seems to increase daily. The three biggest superheroes of the silver screen, for example––Henry Cavill as Superman, Andrew Garfield as Spiderman, and Christian Bale as Batman––are all Brits.

While the trend of Brits making it big in the US is hardly new (bands like The Beatles and Led Zeppelin made their splash decades ago), these days it certainly seems to be building momentum. From Hollywood to Radio City Music Hall to the PGA Tour, Brits are figuring prominently into today's American celebrity landscape.

Share this: Immigration reform means great things for the economy

Now that lawmakers in the Senate have come together to pass a bipartisan piece of legislation to fix our broken immigration system, it's up to the House of Representatives to do the same.

And that makes this the perfect time to learn more about the issue.

In the days ahead, those members of Congress have to make a choice about the right way to reform immigration -- or if they want to proceed at all. As the national debate begins in earnest, we want to make sure you have information you need to answer questions in your community.

So check out this video, then share it so that people know that immigration reform makes a ton of sense for the economy.

Watch and share this video on the economic benefits of immigration reform

America's Commitment to Volunteerism and Service

President George H.W. Bush built a legacy of service during his time as president — laying the foundation for AmeriCorps and other national service organizations, and conferring 1,020 Daily Point of Light Awards, given to recognize volunteer service at home and abroad.

Yesterday, President George H.W. Bush joined President Obama here at the White House to present the 5,000th Point of Light award.
