Nancy Pelosi slated for speaker


Published: Thursday, November 9, 2006 7:57 AM EST
(JTA) - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who is close to national Jewish leaders, is set to become speaker of the US House of Representatives.


Democrats won the House in Tuesday’s midterm congressional elections, which would make House party leader Pelosi the first woman to assume the mantle of speaker, second in line to the presidency.

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.
