Pelosi: Bush Has Failed to Formulate a Comprehensive Counterterrorism Plan

Washington, D.C.– House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today on reports that President Bush will release a National Implementation Plan that is four months old:

“Given the Administration’s failure to plan for the war in Iraq, it is not surprising that President Bush is about to unveil a four-month old ‘National Implementation Plan’ for the war on terrorism that does not reflect current world events and is short on specifics. 

“More than two years ago, the independent 9/11 Commission called for a comprehensive counterterrorism plan that set priorities and established a way to measure results.  Yet in the five years since the 9/11 attacks, the President has failed to formulate such a plan.  If the President does not produce a National Implementation Plan that takes into account the realities facing our nation today, his dismal record and failure to plan for crucial national security matters will continue.

“Democrats are committed to protecting our country with real security initiatives that are smart and tough.  We will begin by implementing all of the 9/11 Commission recommendations and taking America in a new direction.”
