ANNANDALE, Va. -- President Barack Obama visited a community college in Virginia to promote his new budget on Monday.

The president said that making higher education affordable and available to everyone will help manufacturing grow in the United States.

His spending blueprint pushes to stop student loan interest rates from doubling, along with deterring colleges from increasing tuition through funding cuts. Obama also said that schools like Northern Virginia Community College help students get the skills they need in growing fields -- like science and technology -- without breaking the bank.

"Because we've got a choice," President Obama said. "We can settle for a country where a few people do really well and everyone else struggles to get by. Or we can restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot, everybody does their fair share, everybody plays by the same set of rules from Washington, to Wall Street, to Main Street. That's the America we believe in."

Obama's proposed budget would create $4 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade through cuts in government spending and higher taxes on the wealthy.
