Valerie Jarrett is not Iranian-American edit

This article says she is Iranian American. Because she was born in Iran to American professors who we teaching in Iran? Iran does not grant citizenship to anchor babies or their parents. You have to be born from and Iranian father or mother to be considered a citizen. Please correct this obvious mistake! She is American through and through. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.126.158 (talk) 23:22, 4 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Exactly, she is in no way shape or form Iranian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 240D:1A:8AF:4D00:91CE:60F3:7EB1:75BF (talk) 02:25, 5 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Recent vandalism edit

Hi editors, I noticed someone recently changed Jarrett's middle name to "Caesar". This is not correct. Would an editor be willing to revert on my behalf since I have a conflict of interest (I am here on behalf of the Obama Foundation via SKDK)? I'd really appreciate it.

Chicago politics edit

Hi editors, I'm Rachel. I work with SKDK PH. I'm here to request some updates to the article, and the first one I thought I'd take a look at is in the Chicago municipal politics section. Right now, there's no source for Jarrett hiring Michelle Obama while working for the City of Chicago. I request that we add a source for that, and change "private law firm" to "Sidley Austin". I found this Sun-Times source noting Sidley Austin, and this Chiacgo Magazine source noting that Jarrett hired Michelle Obama.

I'd also like to request an update to the years Jarrett led the planning department, which spanned 1991-1995, as supported by this Crain's Chicago Business source. Please let me know what you think. SKDKRachel (talk) 16:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
