Answer :

Answer:

b. The Speaker pushes legislation based on the minority party goals

Explanation:

The speaker of the house is the one that held the highest authority in House Majority and act as the main administrator in the house majority.

To obtain the position as the speaker of the house, you need to obtain the highest vote casted by the members of  major parties. Which is why  The speaker will always work to advance the goals of the majority party, and will be extremely unlikely to  pushes legislation that is proposed by minority party. (Currently This position is held by Nancy Pelosi)

In order to support the goals of the majority party, the speaker of the house will have to be responsible for public communication to the voters. The purpose of this public communication is to influence the voters to support the decisions made by the majority party, which will strengthen the party's chance of re-election.
