Today, Senate Democratic leaders met with President Barack Obama after a Nevada senator asked for a meeting at the White House last Wednesday, which was two days after Obama released his 2012 budget. This meeting was primarily called in efforts to discuss the Republicans proposal about spending cuts and overhauling things such as Social Security. In addition,each senate leader talked about their personal concerns of how protecting Social Security and these budget cuts would severely affect the public.
Following the meeting, the senate leaders commented to the press simply saying that, President Obama mainly just talked about strengthening the economy but was not as specific and did not go into detail as they wanted him too.
