President Obama urges Congress to avert disaster and fund the highway trust fund which runs out next month.

Key quote from President Obama:
"I'm waiting for Congress to act, but in the meantime I've got to go ahead and do what I can do.
 
"And in response, their plan so far has not been to join me and say, all right, Mr. President, you're right, we do need to rebuild our roads; we do need to spruce up our airports.  Instead their big idea has been to sue me.  That's what they're spending time on -- a political stunt that wastes America's time and taxpayer dollars."
