Nancy Pelosi, one of the strongest Speakers in recent history, is today back representing the 11th district of California in the House. She’s been replaced as Speaker by Kevin McCarthy from the 20th district of California, who will be one of the weakest Speakers in history.
@rbreich I don't think the strength or weakness of the speaker is nearly as important as the difference between Dem and Rep policy priorities. Having a weak GOP speaker might be our best option right now.
