Speaker Nancy Pelosi ends her career
Budrigannews.com – Nancy Pelosi attracts the only woman to serve in the powerful post of speaker of the United States House of Representatives, presents an opportunity to pass important legislation, unites her Democratic peers and concludes the long career of a congressional leader who is challenging some of the most powerful men in the world.
Pelosi, an 82-year-old libertarian from California, said Thursday that she would step down from her leadership role at home, but she stayed at home, representing San Francisco, as she had done since 1987.
Pelosi’s move came after her party lost control of the House of Representatives to Republicans in last week’s midterm elections. Pelosi has proven herself to be an effective legislator in 2 terms as speaker, not just an enduring leader, even if she has been vilified by Republicans, including former President Donald Trump.
She accused Trump and was acquitted in the Senate, but warned of the imminent threat posed to American democracy by businessmen-turned-politicians. In 2020, Pelosi publicly tore up a copy of Trump’s final state of the Union address while sitting behind him in the House of Representatives.

Capital fixation
Pelosi has a career in the capital of the United States during a period spanning 7 presidential administrations. She first served as speaker of the House of Representatives from 2007 to 2011, and then regained her job in 2019 after the party regained control of the house in the 2018 midterm elections.
Many Republican candidates heading into the midterm elections have attacked her, linking other Democrats to her and running. His decision to resign paved the way for a potential new generation of House Democratic leaders.
As speaker, Pelosi helped pass the Affordable Care Act of 2010, a law called Obamacare that previously allowed uninsured Americans to get health insurance. It is considered an achievement of the legislation signed by Obama. He led the House of Representatives during Biden’s presidency, passing the COVID-19 Pandemic-related Relief Act, the infrastructure overhaul, the first federal gun law in decades and major climate legislation.
Pelosi also made her mark on foreign policy, visiting destinations such as Ukraine, Iraq and Afghanistan. On May 8, she was furious that she was the highest-ranking American official in 25 years to visit Taiwan, and said she was paying tribute to the “unshakable” vibrant democracy of the US self-governing island.”The visit capped decades of Pelosi’s high-profile crackdown on China’s authoritarian rulers, including President Xi Jinping.
Pelosi served as chair in the impeachment of Trump in 2019 and 2021. In the first, the House accused Trump of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.He asked Ukraine to investigate Biden and his son over allegations of baseless corruption and withheld assistance to Kiev. In the second, the House of Representatives accused Trump of inciting violence in connection with his role in the Capitol rampage.
A vote by Senate Republicans secured Trump’s acquittal in both cases. Trump will begin his 2024 presidential campaign on Tuesday.
Rise to power
Pelosi began her speech after Democrats opposed the Iraq war and Bush began taking control of the House in the 2006 midterm elections.
During her first term as speaker, Pelosi called Bush “a complete failure.”She had political disagreements with him about the Iraq war and his efforts to privatize the Social Security retirement program, but he did not support the fiscal stimulus bill and other measures.
Under Obama, it paved the way not only for House passage of Obamacare, but also for the Dodd-Frank Banking Reform Bill and the $840 billion stimulus package.
While much of the Democratic House shrank in the 2020 election, Pelosi organized the party to pass Biden’s legislative agenda, including a Climático430 billion climate change and drug pricing bill, a $1 trillion infrastructure bill, and a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill.
Considered a West Coast liberal by Republicans, Pelosi first learned politics on the East Coast 60 years ago as mayor and congressman of a big city, the leader of Thomas “Big Tommy” D’Alesandro in Baltimore. His older brother, 3-year-old Thomas D’Alesandro, also served as mayor of Baltimore.
