Pelosi Gets Talking Point Backwards: ‘Equal Pay Deserves Equal Work’

EXCERPT:

PELOSI: “Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for giving us this opportunity on this day of the House of Representatives. This is a day that God has made. Let us rejoice and be glad and let us make the most of it in a very joyous way. It’s a day of celebration. Thank you, Bobby. Thank you Bobby Scott, Mr. Chairman, for your great leadership. You have been a supporter of this initiative for a long time. Thank you for making today possible. And it happens on a day when we’re honored to have in the Speaker’s chair Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, a champion to end discrimination in every way in our country, including discrimination in the paycheck. Thank you, Madam Chair. Today I rise in support of the Paycheck Fairness Act. It reaffirms our nation’s sacred promise that equal pay deserves equal work.”
