Nancy Pelosi slated for speaker
(JTA) - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who is close to national Jewish leaders, is set to become speaker of the US House of Representatives.

Pelosi has strong ties to a number of Jewish groups, including the American Israel Public Affairs Committee; she is a close friend of Amy Friedkin, a past AIPAC president.
