"SNIP.....

Predictably, Pelosi said Democrats’ first three legislative priorities would be lowering health care costs, creating jobs through an infrastructure plan, and cleaning up corruption in Washington. This was the governing platform Democrats ran on, and now they plan to deliver.

"Health care was on the ballot, and health care won," she said.

"We want to create jobs from sea to shining sea," she said.

She promised to "clean up corruption to make America work for the people's interests, not the special interests."

Pelosi also pledged to "insist upon openness and transparency" in the governing process so Americans can see "the impact of legislation on their lives." She also welcomed bipartisanship, noting that she found ways to work with George W. Bush in 2006 when Democrats reclaimed control of the House during his presidency.
