At her weekly press conference Wednesday morning, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) argued that Sen. Sanders’ (I-Vt.) $3.5 trillion budget represented a long-overdue package to assist women and children through new appropriations, programs, and environmental policies.
The budget, said Pelosi, “is really about the children.” She added later that “My theme all along ... has been ‘build back better’ with women.”
