Nancy Pelosi will reportedly run for reelection and is not ruling out the possibility of trying to stay in leadership after 2022, despite an agreement on term limits for leadership positions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pelosi is planning to file and run for reelection in her California district next year, according to<\/a> CNN. Sources told the outlet that Pelosi is considering trying to stay in leadership after 2022, although House Democrats and Pelosi agreed to term limits<\/a> for the top three Democratic leaders in the House. The agreement would stop her from another run at Speaker in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis proposal, which was developed by Members who care about the institution of the House of Representatives, would provide that Members in senior leadership positions can serve 3 terms with an additional term with two-thirds support of the Caucus,\u201d\u00a0Pelosi<\/a>\u00a0said in a statement in 2018. \u201cIt would include the two terms of the Democratic Majority from 2007 to 2011.\u201d Democratic Colorado Rep. Ed Perlmutter, who was\u00a0reportedly<\/a>\u00a0the leader of a group of Democrats who asked Pelosi to agree to the term limit, said in 2019 that they are no longer asking for the party to make the rules official. \u201cWe\u2019re just letting it sit right now,\u201d he said.\u00a0 The Daily Caller contacted Perlmutter\u2019s office, asking if he believes the term limit should be implemented or if Pelosi should be able to run for leadership again after this term, to which they did not immediately respond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In late November, Pelosi sent a letter<\/a> to donors and grassroots supporters saying House Democrats are poised to maintain a majority in 2022 and are preparing for victory despite a number of retirements and bad polling for Democrats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York Democratic Rep. Hakeem Jeffries<\/a> is reportedly<\/a> a leading contender to succeed Pelosi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeffries\u2019 office was asked by the Caller if he is actually considering a run for Speaker of the House and if he will he vote for Pelosi to lead House Democrats again if he does not run, to which they did not respond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
