Nancy Patricia Pelosi (nee D'Alesandro, born March 26, 1940) is an American politician who served as speaker of the United States House of Representatives from 2007 to 2011 and again between 2019 to 2023. Pelosi has served as a U.S. representative from California since 1987, whose district encompasses most of UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the only woman in U.S. history to serve as speaker and she was the highest-ranking female officeholder in the presidential line of succession until UsefulNotes/KamalaHarris became vice president in 2021. Her two non-consecutive tenures as speaker also made her the first former speaker to return to the post since Sam Rayburn in 1955. Following the 2022 midterm elections, which saw the Democrats lose the majority to the Republicans but with a smaller than predicted margin for a midterm, Pelosi announced that she would not seek a leadership role in the 118th Congress but would remain a representative. She was succeeded as Democratic Caucus leader by Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and as speaker by Kevin [=McCarthy=] (R-CA). She was subsequently granted the honorary title "speaker emeritus."
