Nancy Pelosi made history as the first woman to be named speaker of the House. After more than two decades at the helm of the Democratic Party, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) announced late last year that she was stepping down from leadership, but would remain in Congress. Mrs. Pelosi, who made history as the first woman to be named speaker of the House, played a central role in the passage of the Affordable Care Act, response to the Covid-19 pandemic and opposition to Republican former President Donald Trump. On Tuesday, she joins The Wall Street Journal’s Editor in Chief Emma Tucker in New York for an interview about her career and next chapter of Capitol Hill, the future of the Democratic Party and the state of American politics.
