Current Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced she would not seek reelection to Democratic leadership.
The announcement comes a day after the Republicans secured the majority for the next Congress.
After listing all the proof that our government is too big and bloated, Pelosi officially stepped down after 20 years in leadership.
In 2018, Pelosi promised to back term limits for those in Democratic leadership to get the votes to make her Speaker again.
That would mean she wouldn’t lead the Democrats after 2022.
However, in 2021, probably thinking Democrats cannot be stopped, sources said Pelosi mulled over the possibility of seeking leadership after 2022 despite the promise.
I wonder if Republicans squeaking out a majority for the next Congress made her keep her promise.
Current House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer also chose to step down from Democratic leadership.
Hoyer is backing House Democrats Chairman Hakeem Jeffries for Democratic leader.
