In this photo taken Aug. 31, 2011, President Barack Obama speaks in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington and urged Congress to pass a federal highway bill. In his weekly radio Saturday, Sept. 3, 2011, Obama again called for the passage of a transportation bill, and express concern that "political posturing" may stand in the way. "There's no reason to cut off funding for transportation projects at a time when so many of our roads are congested, so many of our bridges are in need of repair and so many businesses are feeling the cost of delays. "This isn't a Democratic or a Republican issue — it's an American issue," he said. (AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster, File) (AP)
