When I think of the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi), these words come to mind: N, never fearing to move; A, aggressively; N and C, sensitive to needed causes; Y, yielding a great foresight; P, progressive; E, energizing; L, loving; O, overwhelmingly; S, spelling; and I, intellect. That is our ``Nancy Pelosi.'' I am so happy to be from the State of California that produced this woman that will guide this country in the future. I salute the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Pelosi), our newest whip.
