Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.) has become the third Democrat this year to call for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to step down from her leadership post.

Yarmuth aired his grievances Monday, commenting that three of the top House Democrat leaders are getting old and out of touch.

“We have to be willing to step aside. I love them all, but we have three leaders who are 75 years old,” Yarmuth told Politico.

Pelosi just turned 75 last March, House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D.- Md.) is 76, and House Assistant Democratic Leader Jim Clyburn (D.- S.C.) will turn 75 on July 21.

Yarmuth joins Rep. Michael Capuano (D-Mass.) and Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.) in calling for Pelosi to resign.

“’Nancy Pelosi will not lead us back into the majority,’ Lynch said to CNN back in April.

Under Pelosi’s leadership, Democrats withered their House seats from 257 in 2009 to 188 in 2015.
