Pelosi: Budget is a Blueprint for the Future
Date:4/29/2009

ving the commensurate health of America should go with it. And again, it's about lowering the cost of reducing entitlement. Health care reform is entitlement reform.

"In terms of education, this budget calls for innovative approaches from early childhood, to tax credits for cost of college as well as increasing the funding for Pell Grants and making college for affordable for us. So from earliest childhood to higher education and then beyond, this budget is a path -- not only again -- for self-fulfillment of the American people, but the innovation of America. Innovation begins in the classroom.

"So having said that, this is a budget about the future.

"I was very tempted when I saw the Majority Leader with his voting card -- to bring a picture of my granddaughter -- my dear little granddaughter just little over a month old -- to the floor. Oh, we do have it here. I won't resist the temptation for two reasons. First of all, I can't take my eyes off of her and second of all: this is what our commitment is about. It's our commitment to the future -- to these children.

"As we go forward, we must take the country in a new direction and in doing so, reduce the deficit. We are not here to heap mountains of debt on our children and our grandchildren. That is what was done in the last years in the Bush Administration. This budget calls a halt to that and says 'no.' It says no more debt; we're going in the opposite direction. We're reducing the deficit as we create good paying jobs in our economy, as we cut taxes for the middle class in our country.

"This is a magnificent blueprint for the future and again, I salute Chairman Spratt for his extraordinary leadership in bringing it to the floor today and urge all of my colleagues to vote 'yes' for a new direction for our country."
