Nancy Pelosi has announced that she will not seek reelection, and her current term ends on January 3, 2027. This means her service in the U.S. House will conclude at the start of 2027, with her final year of service running through 2026. Context and implications

• End of term date: January 3, 2027, and she will complete the remainder of her current term in Congress [news reports from November 2025].
• Next steps: The seat representing San Francisco will be open for a new election in 2026, with campaigning and potential primary timelines shaping the race before the term ends in early 2027 [general political reporting from late 2025].
• Historical note: Pelosi has served as Speaker of the House (2007–2011 and 2019–2023) and has been a longtime member of Congress since 1987; her retirement marks the end of a lengthy legislative career [historical background widely covered in coverage from 2025-2026].
