Boehner Acknowledges The Need To Raise Debt Ceiling

Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio) said there are some members of his party that don’t feel we need to raise the debt limit, but he doesn’t feel it is anywhere close to a majority.

“We have two problems, we have a debt ceiling that has to be raised, and if we don’t deal with the size of our debt, our credit rating is going to be downgraded,” said Boehner. (0:41)
