Press Release
Washington, D.C. – Drew Hammill, spokesman for House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, released this statement on a resolution filed by Congressman Mark Meadows of North Carolina to vacate the Speaker's chair:

"As the American people look to Congress for solutions to the challenges they face, they increasingly see a Republican Congress dominated by obstruction, distraction and dysfunction.

"For more than 200 days, this Republican Congress has failed to advance any measure to create jobs and growth in our country, and leaves for August early with the prospect of only more shutdowns and manufactured crises in store this fall.  The American people deserve better."
