Washington, D.C. — Speaker-designate Nancy Pelosi issued this statement on Congressional Democrats' commitment to passing a green infrastructure bill to rebuild America:

"When Democrats take the gavel, we will rebuild America with clean energy, smart technology and resilient infrastructure. We will lead America into future frontiers with bold investments in advanced energy research and efficiency that create good-paying jobs. We will build the green infrastructure of the future with permanent clean energy tax credits that keep up with the rapid pace of technological progress and bring broadband to rural America. And Democrats will act with openness, accountability and unity to hold this Administration accountable for polluting our children's clean water and clean air.

"I commend Senator Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer for his commitment to green infrastructure for the future."
