NEW: Pelosi dismisses push for 'generational change in leadership'
Multiple Democratic members of the House have called for a shakeup in the leadership ranks in recent months, including Reps. Elissa Slotkin , and Abigail Spanberger having voiced calls for a leadership change in the House. Others like Rep. Tim Ryan , who is running for Senate, and Rep. Dean Phillips raising doubts that President Joe Biden should seek a second term.
But Pelosi, 82, dismissed the criticisms over the majority of Democratic leaders in Congress being over 70, arguing that if members in tough races need to take a swing at her to win they are free to do so.“I say, just win, baby. Just win. If that’s what you have to say to win, fine. We will not in any way do anything but totally support, mobilization, message, money for those people to win their races,” she said.
“We need generational change, of course we do, but in some cases, there’s no substitute for experience," Pelosi I think that what we had been through with the legislation under the leadership of President Biden, who has done a spectacular job — he has had better two years than most presidents you can name, certainly in the recent generations.
While some have cast doubt on Pelosi upholding her agreement, particularly if Democrats manage to retain control of the House, one member who supported the efforts in 2018 told the Washington Examiner: “I have no reason to believe she won’t uphold her promise.”
