Rep.-elect Sharice Davids (D-KS) announced Saturday that she would support House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) in her bid to retake the Speaker’s gavel, The Hill reports.

Said Davids: “Kansans didn’t elect me to go to Washington to play political games and take symbolic protest votes. They elected me to get things done. The best way to move forward as we face unprecedented threats to our healthcare access and to our democracy is to unite behind the person who is clearly going to become the next speaker, and who, whatever differences we may have, will stand up to those threats.”

“Davids was one of several incoming Democratic lawmakers who had remained undecided or expressed skepticism at reelecting Pelosi as the Democratic caucus’ longtime leader following an election many argued reflected a desire for change.”
