House Speaker Nancy Pelosi endorsed her "colleague and friend" Rep. Karen Bass in the Los Angeles mayor's race on Monday, characterizing Bass as a coalition builder who fights for social and economic justice.

Bass (D-Los Angeles) is one of the most prominent candidates running to succeed Mayor Eric Garcetti in a field that also includes City Council members Joe Buscaino and Kevin de León, City Atty. Mike Feuer and real estate developer Rick Caruso, among many others.

"Karen fights to meet the kitchen table needs of Los Angeles families and of families across America," Pelosi, a San Francisco Democrat, said in a video recorded against a backdrop of the city's "painted ladies" Victorian homes. "What keeps you up at night is what keeps her up at night."

ORLANDO, Fla.— Sen. Marco Rubio slammed his Democratic opponent for the 2022 midterm election, Rep. Val Demings, saying if Floridians want someone who votes "100% of the time" with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to be their next senator, they should vote for her, and if they don’t, they should re-elect him.
