Protesters Interrupt Pelosi Speech
----------------------------------



And House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was met by protests Tuesday when she
spoke before a gathering of progressive activists organized by the
Campaign for America’s Future. Minutes into her speech, two men spread
out a banner reading "Stop Funding Israel Terror." Then a
wheelchair-bound woman named Carrie James interrupted Pelosi’s speech,
calling on her to support the Community Choice Act. Others started
chanting "Our homes, not nursing homes."
