Senator Roy Blunt, a Republican from Missouri, speaks during a news conference after a Republican Senate luncheon with Senator John Barrasso, a Republican from Wyoming, left, at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Congress is moving to consider a three-month extension of U.S. highway funding after Speaker John Boehner said the House would pass a short-term bill and leave for a summer break without taking up the Senate's plan. The Senate has been debating a highway policy bill that includes three years of funding. Photographer: Andrew Harrer/Bloomberg via Getty Images
