Concept note-1: -Obama signed many landmark bills into law during his first two years in office. The main reforms include: the Affordable Care Act, sometimes referred to as “the ACA” or “Obamacare", the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Repeal Act of 2010.

Concept note-2: -In February 2009, Obama enacted the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and the pace of economic contraction and job loss immediately decelerated.

Concept note-3: -Established the first-ever national carbon pollution standards for power plants, the largest source of carbon pollution in our country.
