Singer Alicia Keys, headlining a rally for women voters on President Obama's behalf Monday evening, touted his push for health-care reform, education funding and equal pay.

Speaking to a standing-room-only crowd of about 900, Keys cited the first law Obama signed as president in 2009, the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which gives women more options to combat salaries set by gender. And she cast as courageous his push for the Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare.

"It may not have been a popular choice but our president knew he had to fight against something that was not working," Keys said to cheers.
