Vaccinated Pelosi aide gets COVID-19 after Texas Dems meeting – White House aide also reportedly tests positive
A vaccinated senior aide for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has tested positive for COVID-19 after coming into contact with Texas Democrat lawmakers who traveled to Washington D.C. in an effort to deny the state legislature a quorum to pass new state election laws. A White House official has also reportedly tested positive for COVID-19.
Drew Hammill, the deputy chief of staff to Pelosi, confirmed the COVID-19 case in a statement to Axios on Tuesday. Hammill said, “Yesterday, a fully-vaccinated senior spokesperson in the Speaker’s press office tested positive for COVID after contact with members of the Texas state legislature last week.”
Pelosi’s staff member reportedly showed the delegation of Democratic Texas state lawmakers around the Capitol last week. The Texas state lawmakers fled the state to block a vote on Republican-led state election rule changes. Since arriving in D.C., six of the Texas lawmakers have tested positive for COVID-19.
Axios also reported, based on a statement from a White House official, that a fully-vaccinated White House official tested positive for COVID-19 while off-campus.
