A week after he fielded Conservative movement leaders, and two days after he did same with Orthodox leaders, Jack Lew, the White House chief of staff, was in South Florida on June 7, doing Jewish outreach.
From the Tampa Bay Times, quoting the Obama campaign:
Lew, an observant Jew who is actively involved in his own community, will speak to participants about how to turn out Jewish voters in their respective neighborhoods through the campaign’s Jewish Community Leadership Council program. Lew will also speak about the President’s staunch support for Israel and other domestic issues important to him personally and to the Jewish community.
Delivering kishkes, in between managing the Free World’s agenda.
