Pelosi Statement on Latest House GOP Proposal to Roll Back Critical Wall Street Reforms

"House Republicans' latest attack on Dodd-Frank Reform is a gift to some of the most powerful Wall Street special interests who shattered our economy and pushed hard-working Americans into the worst recession since the Great Depression.

"Republicans' trickle down agenda ignited an economic catastrophe that caused eight million Americans to lose their jobs, many to lose their homes, and dealt a body blow to the retirement-savings of hard-working Americans.  Now, House Republicans are trying to undo vital reforms on Wall Street, take the cops off the financial beat, and drag us back to the same failed policies that caused the crisis that hurt so many Americans.

"Republicans' relentless campaign to stack the deck for Wall Street and against hard-working families is the wrong way for America.  The American people are tired of Republicans' trickle down, special interest policies.  As we near the sixth anniversary of Dodd-Frank, Democrats will continue to champion fairness for consumers and accountability for Wall Street recklessness."
