RENO, Nev., Sept 30 (Reuters) - U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama on Tuesday urged lawmakers to return to the negotiating table to work on a financial rescue deal and offered a new proposal he said would help attract support.
The Democratic White House contender suggested raising the limit on bank deposits guaranteed by the federal government to $250,000 from its current level of $100,000.
"One step we could take to potentially broaden support for the legislation and shore up our economy would be to expand federal deposit insurance for families and small businesses across America who have invested their money in our banks," Obama said in a written statement.
"I will be talking to leaders and members of Congress later today to offer this idea and urge them to act without delay to pass a rescue plan," Obama said.
