One moment from Tuesday's town hall touched the hearts of our viewers. Henrietta Hughes has been living in her car and made an emotional plea to the president for help.
"I have an urgent need," Hughes told the president. "We need something more than the vehicle and parks to go to. We need our own kitchen and our own bathroom, please help."
"Listen, what's your name," asked the president.
"It's Henrietta Hughes," she said.
President Obama was so moved he got off the stage and went to her.
"We're going to do everything we can," the president told her.
Henrietta's troubles started when her son lost his job in 2003, then they lost their house.
Now the former Lehigh Acres resident lives in her car.
President Obama told Hughes someone with him would talk to her after the event.
Hughes now has a place to call home if she so chooses.
Senator Nick Thompson and his wife have offered Hughes a home after hearing her story at the town hall.
The house, in Fort Denaud near LaBelle, was Chene Thompson's former residence when she worked for the State Attorney's Office in LaBelle.
They're offering the home rent-free for as long as Hughes needs it.
Obama gonna muthafukkin pay my rent, BIATCH!
