WASHINGTON: Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday she will run for re-election to another term in Congress as Democrats work to win back the majority in 2024.
Pelosi, 83, made the announcement before labour allies in the San Francisco area district she has represented for more than 35 years. “Now more than ever our City needs us to advance San Francisco values and further our recovery,” Pelosi said in a tweet. “Our country needs America to show the world that our flag is still there, with liberty and justice for ALL. That is why I am running for reelection – and respectfully ask for your vote.”
First elected to Congress in 1987, the Democrat made history becoming the first female speaker in 2007, and in 2019 she regained the speaker’s gavel.
