Speaker Nancy Pelosi

Two hundred days ago, the most dynamic and diverse House Majority in history took the oath of office and then got to work. Today, on the steps of the Capitol, we celebrate the extraordinary progress that our historic Majority, led by so many outstanding Freshmen, has advanced.

 It’s been a pretty interesting day.  An historic one as a matter of fact. A day in which the former Special Counsel affirmed, in public, what the Mueller report put forth. 

“The President’s shameful veto tramples over the will of the bipartisan, bicameral Congress and perpetuates his Administration’s involvement in the horrific conflict in Yemen, which is a stain on the conscience of the world.

Speaker Pelosi.  Mr. Speaker, let us salute Congressman Ruiz, Chairman Nadler, Chairwoman Lofgren, Chairwoman Underwood, Chairwoman Slotkin, and Members and thank you, my colleague, Congresswoman Kuster, for the recognition.  These Members are — followed facts, gone to the border and raised a drumbeat on behalf of the children.  I want to add to that, Congresswoman Escobar who has been so great on all of this.
