President Barack Obama has postponed a fundraiser scheduled for next week in Los Angeles, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The event to raise money for the Democratic National Committee was originally scheduled to take place next Monday at the home of “Friends” co-creater Marta Kauffman and her husband, composer Michael Skloff, but the congressional debate on a resolution to authorize force in Syria forced organizers to reschedule.
