End the "Performance at the White House" concert series and disclose the cost of this program.

While many taxpayers have yet to fully recover from this recession, the President and First Lady of the United States have hosted 50 concerts at the White House. While the White House has been closed to the public due to sequestration, it seems that there is plenty of money to be spent on hosting celebrities at the White House. School children and every day people are being denied the chance to visit the White House but celebrities are not only welcomed they are invited. While the NIH, our military, and National Parks suffer from sequestration the White House continues to throw lavish parties.The White House should disclose the cost of these concerts and end them immediately to restore the public's faith in this administration.
