While Alexandria Ocasio Cortez seems to wield much power within the Democrat party, she hasn’t shown much interest in being in an official position of leadership.

Pelosi has thrown her support behind Hakeem Jeffries according to Puck News.

Some weren’t sure if Pelosi would step away from her leadership role, but she had previously promised this previous term would be her last. There was speculation that she made that deal in order to have her final term as Speaker of the House.

With Democrat leadership set to change within the House, we will see what the new Congress ushers in.

House Democrats are set to select their leaders on November 30th
