Democratic Majority Would Act Quickly on Guns, Dreamers, Infrastructure, Pelosi Says

If Democrats control the House in 2019 they would quickly schedule floor action on gun violence prevention, protections for “Dreamers” and infrastructure, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday.

“When we win and we take over in January, some of the issues that will come up soon are the issues we are asking the speaker to take up now,” Pelosi said, naming those three issues.

Speaking during a town hall event with students at Georgetown University, the California Democrat several times used phrasing that suggests she’s not thinking about “if” Democrats retake the House but “when.“

“We will have a pro-choice gavel when we win the Congress,” Pelosi said in response to a student’s question about whether Democrats have a litmus test for candidates on issues like abortion rights.

BS.

Where was that speed a few years ago when they held power?

You can schedule all the votes you want, but A) a lot of these guys you ran in special elections claimed they won't go along with your bullshit and B) it will be a dead letter office because you will never get them through the Senate.
