You should’ve asked about public excommunication. One can quietly self-excommunicate by canon law. I’d like to see some public excommunication myself.

If I were Catholic, those people-- Pelosi, Kennedys, Biden, Kerry-- would make me furious.

In fact, I'm not Catholic and they make me furious the way they show their total disrespect for the Catholic church and its teachings!

I think it has gotten worse the past several years.

That will never happen. The church is no longer in the business of public lynching. The reasons are obvious. A public reprimand would only provoke sympathy from the left. These matters are best kept 'at home'.

In 2009, Pelosi met with the pope at which time he strongly rebuked her over abortion. FWIU, since then both of her bishops have met with her (one engaged her in a year long discussion on the topic) and exhorted her to have a change of heart. I recently heard that Pelosi no longer attends church.
