House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio speaks about the ongoing budget battle, Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2013, outside his office on Capitol Hill in Washington. President Barack Obama stepped up pressure Tuesday on Boehner to hold votes to reopen the federal government and prevent a potentially disastrous U.S. government default. Obama spoke to reporters at the White House a few hours after calling Boehner and urging him to drop demands that the votes be tied to Republican demands for dismantling Obama's health care law and cutting federal spending.
