Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) “is considering a push to enact term limits on Democratic committee chairs ― a move meant to help her secure the votes to once again be House speaker,” the HuffPost reports.
“According to two Democratic sources, Pelosi held a meeting with one of her holdouts Tuesday, Rep. Ed Perlmutter (D-CO), and offered to support term limits for chairs in exchange for his vote for her as speaker.”
“While Perlmutter was noncommittal, the move could be a significant concession for Pelosi ― one that would anger many senior members in the House Democratic Caucus but also provide a pathway for newer members to move up in Congress.”
