Pelosi Statement on 40th Anniversary of Apollo 11 Astronauts Landing on the Moon

“In 1961, President Kennedy set a truly daring goal for this nation by declaring that before the decade was over, an American would land on the moon and return safely. In that moment, there were far more skeptics than believers. But eight years later, the brave astronauts of Apollo 11 – Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins – made believers of us all.”
