The Democrats won a majority in the House of
Representatives in 2006 on a popular mandate to bring the troops home and stop selling America to corporate interests. As Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi sets priorities for Congress.
There is no military solution in Afghanistan. The more U.S. troops that are sent to prop up the corrupt regime, the harder it will be to make peace. But under Speaker Pelosi’s leadership, Congress continues to support war and occupation. Congress must cut off the funds to bring all our troops home from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq.

Big Wall Street banks brought on America's worst financial crisis since the great depression. While their actions destroyed America's jobs, homes, and hope, the big banks got billions in taxpayer bailouts--and went back to business as usual. It's time to tell the banks to start paying for America's recovery by investing in GOOD JOBS NOW!
