Fanning the flames of Democracy

Reed said if backers of his bill fail on Monday to muster the 60 votes needed to advance the bill, they would keep pushing to build support in coming days.

Obama intends to help whip up such public support with an event at the White House on Tuesday with long-term unemployed.

As he nears the sixth year of his presidency, Obama has said he wants to step up efforts to help the needy by extending jobless benefits, raising the minimum wage, increasing funding for education and revamping immigration laws. (emph. mine)
