WASHINGTON, Sept. 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Speaker Nancy Pelosi and
bipartisan House and Senate leaders met with Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson
and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke tonight. Below are the Speaker's
brief remarks at a press availability following their meeting:
"Good evening. We just had what I believe was a very productive meeting
where we heard from the Administration and from the chairman of the Fed, an
initiative to help resolve the financial crisis in our country.
"Our purpose is to do that and in doing so, to insulate Main Street from
Wall Street and recognize our responsibility to the taxpayer, to the consumer,
and to the people all across our country.
"With that, I want to yield to the distinguished leader from the Senate,
Mr. Reid."
