Joining Democratic U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett in his hometown of Austin to rally support for federal legislation that would expand voting access, Pelosi stood with Julieta Garibay, a naturalized citizen who was among the almost 100,000 registered voters whose citizenship was questioned by Texas officials. Pelosi celebrated Democrats winning a majority in the U.S. House, which she said gave the party “leverage against these unconstitutional actions that are being taken by some in power in this state.”
