Nancy Pelosi Government Quotations

Let's just do what is right for the American people. And those of us who are involved in politics and government know that our responsibility is to the American people, that we have a responsibility to find our common ground, to seek it and to find it.

While we may argue about the size of government, the Republican Party has not been a party that says, 'I want to destroy government.'

This isn't about small government. This is about small-minded, petty government that does not meet the needs of the American people.

The message from this budget is, not only is the federal government not going to be there for you, it's going to make matters worse for you and use you as an excuse to give tax cuts to the wealthiest.

Closed government is not healthy for a democracy. Yet again, another example of closed government on the part of Republicans.

What I do care about is that it's an obstacle to other women entering politics, because they'll say, "Why would I do that? I have plenty of other options." And women with plenty of options are just the women that we want to be in politics and government.

Three year sof unconditional MFN have not lead to any subtantial improvement in human rights, trade and nuclear proliferation practice of the Chinese government. In addition to the trade barriers, China has marred our trade relationship wit prison labor or export and other unfair trade practices.

The more women we elect to public office, the more wholesome the whole process will be, whether it's government, politics, whatever.

Ninety-eight percent of women in childbearing age who are Catholic use contraception. Ok, so in practice the church has not enforced this and now they want the federal government and private insurance to enforce it. It just isn't consistent to me.
