'She's very excited': Top Trump foe Nancy Pelosi to visit Australia

One of the most influential politicians in recent United States history – former House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi – is set to visit Australia next year as part of an effort to boost American tourist numbers.
Trade and Tourism Minister Don Farrell said he invited Pelosi and husband Paul to make the trip while sitting beside the pair during a dinner in San Francisco earlier this month.

“I said it would be fantastic for her to visit Australia and she readily accepted the invitation,” Farrell said. “She’s very excited about it.”

Farrell said United Airlines, which runs direct flights to Australia from Los Angeles and Pelosi’s hometown of San Francisco, had agreed to sponsor her trip.

Pelosi, whose electoral district includes several tech headquarters, is expected to visit Google’s Sydney headquarters during the planned visit. She is also close friends with the US ambassador to Australia, Caroline Kennedy.
