Louisville Mayor To Talk To President Obama

• {Kentucky}...Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer says he was invited Tuesday to meet and talk to President Barack Obama about the closed Sherman Minton Bridge over the Ohio River at Louisville on Thursday when the president visits the Brent Spence Bridge in Cincinnati. The Louisville bridge, which carries Interstate 64 across the river between Louisville and New Albany, Indiana, was closed one day after Obama urged Congress in a nationally televised speech to pass his jobs bill, specifically citing the Brent Spence Bridge connecting northern Kentucky to Cincinnati as in dire need of repair. Fischer says he will "stress as strongly as possible" the need for federal support, and he also plans to discuss building additional bridges in Louisville.
