Obama says shutdown would hurt families, economy

Speaking at an event outside Philadelphia, Obama admonished lawmakers in a budget battle to “act like adults.” Trying to pressure Republican House members, he insisted the White House has compromised and called on GOP lawmakers to do the same. He compared the relationship to a marriage and said his opponents can’t simply get their way.
Said the president: “That’s not how it works.” He said a shutdown would keep businesses from getting loans and prevent families from being able to tour national parks.
Obama revealed no details on the budget talks as a deadline looms.
Some government services will shut down Saturday if a deal is not reached by Friday.
