WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama is pushing back a trip to Capitol Hill aimed at discussing the proposed health care overhaul with lawmakers.
Obama planned to head to the Capitol on Friday. Now, the White House schedule shows the president planning to visit the Capitol on Saturday.
Friday afternoon, Obama plans to visit Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
White House officials said the trip to Walter Reed had been scheduled before the fatal shootings Thursday at Fort Hood in Texas.
They insist that the visit to Walter Reed, Obama's first as president, is separate from the incident at Fort Hood.
