Democratic Party’s House leader and was the first woman to become speaker, announced on Friday that she would seek re-election in 2024, ending months of speculation about her political future.
“In light of the values of San Francisco, which we’ve always been proud to promote, I’ve made the decision to seek re-election,” Ms. Pelosi said on Friday at an event in her hometown focused on organized labor.
Since she stepped down from leadership last year after Democrats lost the House majority, many observers expected that Ms. Pelosi, 83, was headed for retirement; but she had kept people guessing about her plans. Some were surprised to see her stay in Congress at all, a rare move for a former speaker.
But colleagues said she relished her lower profile as a rank-and-file member with emeritus status. In that new role, Ms. Pelosi offers advice on an as-needed basis to her party’s new leadership team, often sits in the back rows of the House floor gabbing with her closest friends and focuses her attention on San Francisco while quietly remaining a fund-raising powerhouse for Democrats.
“I’m emancipated now!” an ebullient Ms. Pelosi said in a recent interview with The Los Angeles Times.
