In everything she does, she reflects a dignity in her actions and a dignity she sees in the lives of the people of this nation,\u201d Biden said in his statement.<\/p>\n<p>Biden argued that Pelosi \u201cis the most consequential Speaker of the House of Representatives in our history\u201d and said that he watched her \u201cin action\u201d during his career from senator to vice president to president.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cWith Nancy, you see a father\u2019s daughter who learned by his side how to win and govern.

Bush. She notably did not mention former President Trump who earlier this week launched another White House bid.<\/p>\n<p>In his statement, Biden said that Pelosi worked with him to pass critical parts of his agenda thus far, citing the American Rescue Plan, the infrastructure law, the CHIPS and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Science<\/a> Act, gun control legislation and the Democrats\u2019 sweeping climate and tax bill.<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that Pelosi worked with Obama on an economic rescue package during the Great Recession, passed the Affordable Care Act and ended \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell,\u201d the military\u2019s policy barring openly LGBT people from serving.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr4_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>Recently, Biden leant his support to Pelosi after her husband, Paul Pelosi, was attacked last month at the couple\u2019s San Francisco home. He\u00a0ripped Republicans who made jokes about it\u00a0and criticized those who didn\u2019t offer a full condemnation of it.<\/p>\n<p>Days later, Biden gave a speech\u00a0on democracy, during which he focused on Paul Pelosi\u2019s attack at the start of his remarks.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Biden said that Pelosi is a fierce defender of democracy, citing the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHistory will also note her fierceness and resolve to protect our democracy from the violent, deadly insurrection of January 6th. It\u2019s a threat of political violence and intimidation that continues and she and her family know all too well, but that will never stop her from serving our nation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The president said that he and first lady Jill Biden consider the Pelosi family among their dearest friends.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
