"This is only the beginning."

Summary from Speaker Pelosi's blog entry on Huffingtonpost.com:

HR 1: Enacted provisions of the 9/11 Commission after 2 1/2 years of inaction by Republican Congress.
HR 2: Minimun wage increase passed, after 10 years of Republican inaction.
HR 3: Passed extended stem cell research provisions, despite inaction by Republicans for fear of offending pro-life righties.
HR 4: Passed changes to Medicare, allowing for negotation with Pharmacutical corporations to lower drug prices. A shortcoming of the Repub Medicare changes passed previously.
HR 5: Cut interest rates on student loans. This just makes good sense. "No Child Left Behind" notwithstanding.
HR 6: Cut subsidies and tax breaks to Repubilcan's oil friends, and invest in renewable energy.

Now, let's talk about the Iraq War and the evil that Republicans do...ALWAYS.
