Brad Pitt Visits Washington

The star, who is known for his humanitarian efforts, was in the American capital to discuss his project, Make It Right, which was founded in 2007.

Pitt’s plan strives to help the residents of New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward to be provided with new and affordable housing.  The area was devastated by Hurricane Katrina.

Pelosi applauded the Hollywood star for his passion and involvement in the New Orleans area, however, she did not commit to supporting the actor’s project.

Pitt, who was recently nominated for an Oscar in the film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, was in Washington, DC with his partner, Angelina Jolie.
