Obama Says Congress Should Act on Jobs Plan With ‘No Delays’

President Barack Obama held up a copy of legislation to enact his $447 billion job-growth package and called on Congress to act on it with “no games, no politics, no delays.”

“I’m sending this bill to Congress today and they ought to pass it immediately,” Obama said in the White House Rose Garden, where he was joined by Vice President Joe Biden and a group that included teachers, police officers, construction workers and small-business owners. “Let’s put them back to work.”
