Nevada Senator Harry Reid today spoke about the need to pass legislation quickly that addresses the financial crisis in a responsible way that strengthens our national economy while helping middle-class Nevadans who are struggling. Reid urged House Republicans to join in the bipartisan negotiations currently taking place in the Senate.

"We will work with the President to modify his plan to make it better for tax payers and homeowners,” said Reid adding, “We will demand tough oversight to make sure tax dollars are not used to reward CEO’s who created this mess.” Reid urged House Republicans to join bipartisan deliberations to address the financial crisis and work toward focused solutions, not photo ops or political stunts.
