• House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is set to make an announcement about her future plans on Thursday, just one day after Republicans clinched the House majority, guaranteeing GOP control of at least one chamber of Congress over the next two years.
• Pelosi’s decision on whether she’ll launch another leadership bid or prepare to step down from politics altogether has been widely anticipated for months. Pelosi won her first election to Congress in 1987 and has served as the party’s House leader since 2002, quickly becoming the House’s most prolific fundraiser and a well-recognized face throughout the nation.
