The Dump Pelosi movement was led by Reps. [[Seth Moulton]], [[Tim Ryan]], [[Ed Perlmutter]], [[Kathleen Rice]],  [[Bill Foster]], [[Filemon Vela]], [[Kurt Schrader]], [[Conor Lamb]], [[Jim Cooper]], [[Brian Higgins]], [[Stephen Lynch]], [[Linda Sánchez]], Reps.-Elect [[Abigail Spanberger]], [[Jason Crow]], [[Mikie Sherrill]], [[Andy Kim]], [[Haley Stevens]], [[Joe Cunningham]], [[Max Rose]], [[Jeff Van Drew]] and [[Anthony Brindisi]]. NeverPelosi Democrats vowed to {{Quotebox|"support new leadership because voters in hard-won districts, and across the country, want to see real change in Washington."}} The organizers of the [[coup]] were two white men, Moulton and Ryan who, for appearance sake, proposed replacing a woman with woman. Reps. Fudge, [[Cheri Bustos]] and [[Karen Bass]] all were put forward. Pelosi issued the obligatory charges of [[bigot]]ry, [[misogyny]], and [[sexism]] against the people's elected representatives.<ref>https://youtu.be/rBgKtbj167g</ref> The 16 dissenters represent 12 million citizens, of which more than 6 million are Democrats.<br>

[[Justice Democrats]], a group that backed Reps.-elect [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] and [[Ayanna S. Pressley]], urged progressive Democrats to withhold their votes to {{quotebox|“extract concessions...[[Medicare For All]], rejecting corporate donations, free college, dismantling mass incarceration and mass deportation."}}

Traditionally Speaker races were strictly internal affairs. With Pelosi's election on the ropes, Pelosi invited big money special interest [[lobbying]] groups to muscle in. [[MoveOn.org]], [[NARAL Pro-Choice America|NAMBLA/Pro-Choice America]], [[People for the American Way]],  [[Service Employees International Union]], [[Protect Our Care]], [[End Citizens United]], [[League of Conservation Voters]], [[Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence]], [[United Farm Workers]], [[Communications Workers of America]], [[American Federation of Government Employees]], [[United Auto Workers]], [[National Association of Letter Carriers,]] and [[Tax March]] voiced support for Pelosi. The groups essentially threatened to withhold money from NeverPelosi Democrats. The bosses of [[Center for American Progress]], [[AFL-CIO]], and [[Moms Demand Action]] also voiced support.
