A third Democratic lawmaker called on Nancy Pelosi to step down as leader of the House Democrats.
Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) says it’s time for new blood, “We have three leaders who are 75 years old.”
America Rising PAC reported:
Kentucky Democrat John Yarmuth suggested that it’s time for Nancy Pelosi to step down as leader of the House Democrats and called for younger leadership of the Democrat caucus. Yarmuth told Politico, “We have to be willing to step aside. I love them all, but we have three leaders who are 75 years old.”
Combined with calls from Massachusetts Democrats Michael Capuano and Stephen Lynch in April for Pelosi to step down and the Democrats’ fierce “civil war” over trade, it seems like Pelosi might not be the leader for much longer.
