Last week, they came up with some meager proposals, and the president then over the weekend did even less to give an illusion so that the market would go up and people would think we're not paying attention that he might be doing something.
Nancy Pelosi
The Public Record
Nancy Patricia Pelosi is an American politician serving as the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives since January 2019, and previously from 2007 to 2011. She is a member of the Democratic Party and has represented California's 12th congressional district in the House of Representatives since 1987, making her one of the longest-serving members of Congress. Pelosi is the first woman to hold the office of Speaker, a role in which she has played a significant part in shaping legislative priorities and party strategy.
What we're seeing is illusion. It's important to enlarge the issue to understand that what the president does is say, I'm doing things to help people, which he isn't.
In a number of months, we'll have that table full with many more women appointed by President Joe Biden.
Well, thank you, Joy, for the opportunity to be with you. Congratulations on REIDOUT. We're all excited about your new show. An opportunity to talk about issues of concern to America's working families, and that's not what the president is…
I can't envision a situation. But here it is, in middle of pandemic, three months ago, we passed the HEROES Act in House of Representatives to meet the needs of the American people.
We've asked the president to have the Defense Production Act, go into action to insist that our businesses produce this equipment -- this equipment -- he just won't do it.
We have the tools at our disposal: testing, tracing, treatment, isolation, mask wearing, sanitation to hold this virus in check, to try to beat it.
A plague that has an impact on our economy and it's about the lives of the American people, the livelihood of the American people and the life of our democracy.
Well, central to all of that is to get rid of this virus and that's why I keep coming back to the fact, we can open our economy, we can improve the situation if we follow science, but if you don't believe in science, and you don't believe…
This is a way for us to open our economy, facilitate opening our schools by reducing the rate of infection in our communities.
We need more equipment. And the reason everybody isn't tested because there isn't enough equipment to test everyone.
The members cannot come on to the floor of the House, unless they have a mask and I, as Speaker have directed the sergeant-at-arms, the Capitol Police to refuse entry into the hall if people don't have on a mask.
we call on you to include emergency supplemental funding to preserve Amtrak, the critical services it provides, and the livelihoods of its employees.
I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I thank him for being a lifelong champion of environmental justice and environmental stewardship as chair of the Committee on Natural Resources. Mr. Speaker, as a Californian, as an American, as…
I thank the gentleman for yielding. I thank him for his leadership in bringing this legislation to the floor. Madam Speaker, I pay special tribute to Congresswoman Chu, the chair of the caucus in the House that represents the Asian Pacific…
I thank the gentlewoman for yielding and appreciate her calling us together for this Special Order for a very special person. This big picture of John Lewis was just put up here. ``Rest in Power,'' it says. You can't see from the TV, but…
I thank the gentleman for yielding and for his leadership in bringing us together today, along with our distinguished leader, Mr. Hoyer; our distinguished whip, Mr. Jim Clyburn; Congressional Black Caucus Chair Karen Bass; Chairman Bennie…
I think it's a terrible idea. Just look at this administration, the President and his henchmen, so many of his friends, advisors, campaign chairman, et cetera, are in jail, and for the President to be able to issue a pardon on the basis of…
In all of the countries of the world that had been successful in curtailing the spread of the virus, or at least to in some cases ended, they've had a centralized leadership and that leadership has to have a strategic plan based on science.
the President has been a failure in every way, right from the start his denial, calling it a hoax, his delay, and all the rest have gotten us into a very bad place.
