6:07Now PlayingSpeaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., spoke at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Wednesday, a night focused on fighting “for our freedoms,” from democracy to reproductive rights and more.
Pelosi hailed Vice President Kamala Harris’ fights for reproductive rights and running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s commitment to voting for the Affordable Care Act 14 years ago.
Pelosi also recalled the Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, saying former President Donald Trump “assaulted democracy,” though she didn’t mention him by name.
“The parable of Jan. 6th reminds us that our democracy is only as strong as the courage and commitment of those entrusted with its care,” Pelosi said. “And we must choose leaders who believe in free and fair elections who respect the peaceful transfer of power.”
Later in the evening, Walz will formally accept the vice presidential nomination, a day before Harris takes the stage as the official nominee.
