Speaking at a retreat for House Democrats in Cambridge, MD, President Barack Obama urged members to be willing to work with Republicans, even in an election year. But if the opposition maintains its stubbornness, Democrats must not back down, he said.

“When they obstruct, when they are unwilling to act, when they are more interested in party than country, we’ve got to call them out on it,” Obama said.
