"Inclusion over isolation. Justice over judicial overreach. Knowledge over kangaroo courts. Liberty over limitation. Maturity over Mar-a-Lago. Normalcy over negativity. Opportunity over obstruction. People over politics. Quality of life issues over Q-Anon. Reason over racism."

[The following is an excerpt from a speech given by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries after the election of House Speaker.]

"House Democrats will always put:

American values over autocracy. Benevolence over bigotry. The Constitution over the cult.
Democracy over demagogues. Economic opportunity over extremism. Freedom over fascism. Governing over gaslighting. Hopefulness over hatred."

A fantastic speech that will go down in history, and be used as a reference for future leaders.

DEMOCRATIC LEADER

This is one hell of a speech to the 118th Congress from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

“House Democrats elected Rep. #HakeemJeffries as their #leader, making him the first Black lawmaker to lead a party in #Congress. The New Yorker succeeds House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has led the Dems for 2 decades. Jeffries will carry the title of #MinorityLeader when Congress returns in January w/Republicans in control of the House as a result of the midterm elections.

Strong, principled, courageous, hard-working, Nancy Pelosi has been one of the greatest American political leaders of the past century. I understand her decision to step down as leader of the House Democrats, but I will miss her. #SpeakerOfTheHouse #MinorityLeader #DemocraticParty #NancyPelosi
