After a jury ruled last year that former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was guilty of murder, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi thanked George Floyd for “sacrificing” his life, claiming that his name will “always be synonymous with justice.”
“Thank you, George Floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice,” Pelosi said in front of the U.S. Capitol. “Because of you — and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice — your name will always be synonymous with justice,” she added.
