Obama to hold year-end news conference before Hawaii getaway
- 8 years ago
President Barack Obama is preparing to take questions from reporters at the White House before starting his annual Hawaii vacation. The White House says Obama will hold his traditional year-end news conference on Friday afternoon. Then the president will depart for San Bernardino, California, where he plans to meet with families of the 14 victims of the recent mass shooting. The California stop will be Obama's last before he travels to Hawaii to spend Christmas and New Year's with his family. Obama is scheduled to return to the White House on Jan. 4 to start his last year in office.
