President Obama on Tuesday gave Rep. Scott Rigell (R-VA) credit for traveling with him to Virginia for the President’s speech on the sequester. 

“You know, he is one of your Republican congressmen, who is with us here today. And that’s not always healthy for a Republican, being with me. He is doing it because he knows it’s important to you,” Obama said.
