As many states continue to relax Covid restrictions amidst the shift from pandemic to endemic, Pelosi pushes to extend voting by proxy well into May.

From Fox News. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday extended the period by which House vote by proxy through May 14…

In her announcement, Pelosi, a California Democrat, cited a memo from Sergeant at Arms William Walker, who consulted with the U.S. Attending Physician Dr. Brian Monahan, for the move. Walker wrote “public health emergency due to the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 remains in effect.”

“In light of the attached notification by the Sergeant-at-Arms, in consultation with the Office of Attending Physician, that a public health emergency is in effect due to a novel coronavirus, I am hereby extending the ‘covered period,'” Pelosi wrote.

Pelosi has extended proxy voting several times during the pandemic. The move allows House members to vote on another person’s behalf if they aren’t physically present to do so, an exception that became commonplace as COVID-19 cases began to surge across the country.
