"Sister Roma Thank you, Nancy Pelosi, for your decades of leadership, advocacy, and service. In her first address as a new member of Congress in 1987, she shocked her colleagues by speaking about the HIV/AIDS crisis and the need for federal leadership on the issue. That initial speech set the tone for her entire career as a fearless and progressive leader who fought hard for human rights, equality, accessible and affordable healthcare, infrastructure, climate control, gun safety, immigration reform, and voter rights, to name a few. She made history as the first female Speaker of the House in 2007-11, and again in 2019-23, a testament to her commitment to uphold the constitution and dedication to public service. Cheers to a life well lived!"
