We Need to Do More
By Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, Nov 10, 2008
Last month, America's foremost economists told House Democratic leaders that our economy and America's families would benefit if Congress acted quickly on a new economic recovery package. The economists' message echoed that of the economist who won the Nobel Prize in October -- Paul Krugman -- who is calling for a large fiscal stimulus program "to get us out of this recession."

The Stimulus We Need To Get Our Economy Back on Track
By Nancy Pelosi, Speaker, Mar 18, 2008

And last month, we successfully passed a sweeping new energy policy—the Energy Independence and Security Act. This landmark energy bill will lead our nation on a path to energy independence, with clean and renewable energies, and lower prices for consumers.

Responsible Plan for 10-Year War in Iraq
By Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Oct 15, 2007
After more than four years of a war in Iraq that has cost the lives of thousands of brave men and women in uniform, weakened our military, and cost American taxpayers billions of dollars, President Bush continues to offer a failed policy that is a path to 10 more years of war in Iraq. This plan for the continued occupation of Iraq sends the wrong signal to an Iraqi government that has failed to implement the needed reforms for national reconciliation, and it is against the will of the American people, who want to end this war.
