DeGette Comments on the State of the Economy

U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Co), Vice Chair of the Committee on Energy and Commerce, today offered the following statement on the state of the economy:

"Like all Americans, I am deeply concerned about the recent turmoil in the financial markets. Over the weekend, I will review the relief package requested by the Bush Administration, and as Chief Deputy Whip, I will work with my colleagues in Congress to ensure that whatever we adopt will stabilize the economy and provide relief for consumers and homeowners, as they are feeling the rising gas and energy prices, soaring health care costs, and the fallout of the mortgage crisis."
