Roll Call honors the 26 current Members of Congress who followed his or her father’s footsteps to the Capitol.
Nancy Pelosi: “While I was still in the middle of my first campaign for Congress, a tough battle, my father said to me, ‘Just remember — I don’t need a ticket to your swearing-in because former Members can go right to the floor,’” Pelosi said. “I pointed out to him that I hadn’t even won my election yet! But I think that was a sign that my father felt great pride.”
