If the fiscal cliff debate told us anything it should be that Grover Norquist’s tax pledge is dead – now & forever more http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/economy-a-budget/275445-rip-grover-norquist-tax-pledge …
Officially sworn in as a member of the 113th Congress moments ago. Hoping this Congress is a more bipartisan and productive one.

Finally GOP getting the message. Up or down vote on bi-partisan fiscal cliff deal happening tonight.
Nancy Pelosi
Strong majority of House Ds support bipartisan Senate bill that passed 89-8. Confident it will pass if @SpeakerBoehner allows up/down vote.

Congress must keep working to do what's right for the American people #fiscalcliff
Unfortunate we may go into recess without a fiscal cliff deal. But as POTUS said, a deal could be insight but clearly our work is not done
I do believe we will have a deal to prevent us from going over the fiscal cliff... http://youtu.be/JDJFk9SHecg
Tune into MSNBC at 2:30pm PT and CNN at 3pm PT. I'll be on to talk about the recent developments to avert the fiscal cliff.
