The Obama campaign released a Mother’s Day video Sunday, featuring President Obama talking about his mother, his grandmother, and Michelle Obama.

At the end of the video, the president also discusses the legislation he has worked on that he says helps women and mothers, including health care reform and the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
