Pelosi Statement on the Final Return Home of American Patriots Lost in Libya

“These patriotic Americans served on behalf of democracy and freedom; they gave their lives to nothing less than the cause of American values. Our freedom at home is sustained only because there are many Americans who are willing to fight for it, stand up for it, and lay down their lives for it. The courage of these four Americans is shared by all our men and women in uniform and Americans serving our nation around the world. We will honor their sacrifice by tirelessly pursuing justice on their behalf."

“But if you need only to see how we differ, just look at the Ryan-Romney-Republican budget. Their blueprint says we’re going to end Medicare, we’re going to make seniors pay $6,000 more as we end Medicare and we’re going to give tax cuts to the wealthiest people in our country. That’s not fair. That’s not balanced. But that is what would happen if the Republican bill were to become law, it would enact the Ryan bill."
