Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi

On , we honor the courage and resilience of refugees forced to flee war, persecution and disaster in search of safety and opportunity.

By welcoming those who seek a better future, we uphold our values while continuing to strengthen America.

On , we remember the stain slavery left on our nation and our long journey toward justice, freedom and equality—recognizing that true freedom was delayed for more than two years after emancipation.

Today, as we celebrate generations of Black Americans who bravely fought back against bigotry, we must continue their work of building a more perfect union.

On , we honor our nation’s enduring symbol of freedom and Democracy.

As we confront challenges to liberty at home and abroad, we renew our sacred pledge to defend our Democracy and give proof through the night that our flag is still here.

A decade ago, 49 beautiful souls were stolen, more than 50 others injured and countless traumatized in the horrific hate-fueled attack at Pulse Nightclub.

Today, we remember those we lost, honor the courage of the survivors and hold their loved ones and the entire LGBTQ+ community in our hearts.

Honored to be named the Congressional Baseball Game’s “Most Valuable Fan” last night.

If 90% of success is showing up (for the hot dogs), the other 10% must be cheering and having fun!

On this day in 1963, the Equal Pay Act became law—but more than six decades later, women still earn less on average than men for the same work.

It’s past time for Congress to pass Democrats’ Paycheck Fairness Act and finally close the gender pay gap.
