Democratic stalwart and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi endorsed Rep. Adam B. Schiff's bid for the U.S. Senate on Thursday, as long as incumbent Dianne Feinstein doesn't seek reelection.
"If she decides not to run, I will be supporting House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff, who knows well the nexus between a strong Democracy and a strong economy," Pelosi, of San Francisco, said in a statement. "In his service in the House, he has focused on strengthening our Democracy with justice and on building an economy that works for all."
Schiff chaired the Intelligence Committee until Republicans took control of the House in the 2022 election.
