Pelosi to Step Down as House Democratic Leader
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced she will step down as House Democratic leader, ending the history-making tenure as the first woman to serve as speaker and opening the way for a generational change in her party’s congressional leadership.
“I will not seek reelection to Democratic leadership in the next Congress,” Pelosi said Thursday on the House floor. The 82-year-old will stay in Congress and represent her San Francisco district.
