Democrats on Thursday approved several changes in the way they’ll run the House, including provisions aimed at boosting staff diversity, allowing religious headwear to be worn, and making it easier to raise the debt ceiling.

Lawmakers voted 234-197 in favor of the changes sought by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., who lost just three Democratic votes along the way.
