Rep. Barragán’s Statement on Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi’s Retirement From Congress in 2027
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Representative Barragán (CA-44) released the following statement on Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi’s retirement from Congress in 2027:
“Nancy Pelosi broke the glass ceiling as the first woman to become Speaker of the House — then went on to become the best Speaker we’ve ever seen. In her time in Congress, Rep. Pelosi has been a voice for Californians and Americans everywhere.
As Speaker, she shepherded the passage of the Affordable Care Act that made health care affordable for millions of Americans, and we continue that fight today. She protected our democracy when she went toe to toe with Trump. And she inspired the Democratic women of the caucus and showed us that glass ceilings are meant to be broken.
Thank you, Madam Speaker.”
