Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued this statement after the Ways and Means Committee voted to release their investigation of the IRS's mandatory audit program under the former Administration:

"The Ways & Means Committee's solemn oversight work has revealed the urgent need for legislation to ensure the public can trust in real accountability and transparency during the audit of a sitting president's tax returns – not only in the case of President Trump, but for any president. The American people deserve to know without question that no one is above the law.

Dear Democratic Colleague,

Thanks to the leadership and persistence of Chairs Rosa DeLauro and Patrick Leahy, this week the Congress will take up a robust government funding bill that helps meet the needs of America's working families.

Proudly, Democrats' tenacious negotiating has yielded a significant increase in non-defense discretionary funding — larger than the boost we won in last March's government funding bill. This means that we will be able to make historic investments in our families, workers and communities.

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued this statement after the release of omnibus government funding legislation for Fiscal Year 2023:

We are ending a very special session of the 117th Congress with legislation that makes progress for the American people as well as support for our Democracy. Please be present for a very special focus on Democracy Wednesday night.

Sincerely,

NANCY PELOSI
