Nancy Pelosi will step down as top House Democrat after two decades in leadership

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : But working aggressively with the Senate, she clinched a new deal four days later that passed both chambers and averted economic collapse.
44% : The Obama administration spent much of its political capital crafting the Affordable Care Act to broadly reform health care in the United States.
43% : In the first of many times Pelosi had to successfully hold her caucus together, she pushed back against Bush's plan to reform Social Security and urged her members to coalesce in opposition, which they did.
36% : Trump's declining popularity and Republicans' attempts to repeal the Affordable Care Act boosted Democrats in the 2018 midterms.
29% : She led the House Democratic caucus through a bitter fight in 2010 to pass the Affordable Care Act and most recently managed a razor-thin majority in passing several key pieces of President Biden's legislative agenda.
