Pelosi Statement on Discussions with Treasury Secretary Paulson on Economic Stimulus Package
“Speaking today with Secretary Paulson, it was clear that we
shared a sense of urgency about current economic conditions as we discussed the
parameters of what might be contained in an economic stimulus package. We also discussed the subprime mortgage
crisis and the importance of getting legislation signed into law to bring
relief to families threatened by foreclosures.
“The conversation between Congress and the Administration will continue as we develop an economic stimulus plan that is timely, targeted and temporary and one that restores confidence -- consumer confidence and confidence in the market.”
