Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said Saturday that she and her family have been left "heartbroken and traumatized" by the attack on her husband, Paul.

What they're saying: "Yesterday morning, a violent man broke into our family home, demanded to confront me and brutally attacked my husband, Paul," Pelosi said in a "dear colleague" statement to the House.

• "Our children, our grandchildren and I are heartbroken and traumatized by the life-threatening attack on our Pop," she added.
• Pelosi said Paul's condition "continues to improve" and thanked law enforcement and emergency responders for their efforts.
• "Please know that the outpouring of prayers and warm wishes from so many in the Congress is a comfort to our family and is helping Paul make progress with his recovery," she added.

The big picture: Paul Pelosi underwent surgery to "repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands" following an attack in the couple's San Francisco home early Friday morning, Nancy Pelosi's spokesperson said.

• The suspect in the attack, David DePape, will be charged with multiple felonies and has a history of allegedly making racist remarks and rambling about QAnon conspiracy theories online, Axios' Herb Scribner writes.
• The attack has stoked fears about personal safety among members of Congress.
