                 BUILDING A RECOVERY RIGHT FOR AMERICA

failed policies that created the economic crisis, siding with special 
interest, Wall Street banks, credit card companies, Big Oil, and 
insurance companies. These Bush economic and fiscal policies created 
the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, with job losses 
of nearly 800,000 a month, and nearly doubled our national debt. 
Democrats in Congress are working to create American jobs and a strong 
new foundation for our economy, protecting Main Street and the middle 
class, not siding with the insurance companies and Wall Street.
  This week's news provides evidence that American families are 
beginning to feel some effects of an economy headed in a better 
direction. USA Today headlines read: ``Economists say recovery looks 
stronger than expected.'' Bloomberg says: ``Companies in U.S. plan to 
increase employment, survey shows.'' The New York Times says: ``From 
the mall to the docks, signs of rebound.''
  No matter how much they try to side with Wall Street, Democrats will 
side with the American people and build a recovery and an economy that 
will work for them.
