Pelosi Shames GOP For Inflicting $24 Billion Worth of Damage on U.S. Economy

Pelosi Bashes GOP Colleagues: Was Your ‘Recklessness Worth 24 Billion Dollars to Our Economy’? (Mediaite)

Before the House officially voted to reopen the government and raise the debt ceiling, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi took one final jab at her Republican colleagues, bringing up the immense cost of the government shutdown and asking them at the end of the day if it was really worth raising all that cain about Obamacare.

Pelosi railed against the “unnecessary shutdown” and after briefly thanking John Boehner for finally allowing a vote on the floor, brought up the cost of the shutdown: 24 billion dollars. That led Pelosi to ask an important question.
