Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), the iconic San Francisco liberal who has led congressional Democrats for two decades and broke the glass ceiling as the first woman to control the House of Representatives, said on Thursday she'll step aside as leader at the end of the 117th Congress.
Driving the news: "Never did I think I’d go from homemaker to House Speaker," Pelosi said, wearing her Mace of the Republic brooch and a suffragette white suit.
