Will Prop 50 Prompt a Pelosi Exit?
California waits with anticipation as Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is expected to make an announcement following Tuesday's special election.
Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, 85, has been a prominent figure in Washington since her election to Congress in 1987. She made history as the first woman to serve as Speaker of the House, holding the position from 2007 to 2011 and again from 2019 to 2023.
Even after relinquishing her Democratic Party leadership role, Pelosi continued to wield significant influence within the party. Notably, she played a pivotal role in President Joe Biden's decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race through private conversations.
Many Democratic sources speculate that she'll announce her retirement from Congress.
