House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in a statement has outlined some of the Democrats’ policy priorities during the 117th Congress, with a heavy focus on “justice” in a range of areas.
“Indeed, the pandemic has pulled back the curtain on and shown even worsened disparities in our economy and our society,” Pelosi, who was reelected as speaker in a 216–209 vote, said on the House floor on Jan. 3.
