0:50Now PlayingSpeaker Nancy Pelosi's announcement on the House floor came a day after Republicans claimed a majority in the House in the next congressional term.
RELATEDSpeaker Nancy Pelosi announces future plans
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday she will step down from her leadership role, ending a 20-year reign leading House Democrats with an iron grip and breaking barriers as the first woman speaker. Her announcement on the House floor came a day after Republicans claimed a majority in the House in the next congressional term.
"The House will be in order," said Pelosi, wearing a white pant suit and her signature Mace of the Republic brooch. As she walked to the well of the floor and took the podium, she got around of applause from her colleagues.
Her decision comes after her party was able to halt an expected Republican wave in the House though Republicans will still have a majority, albeit much narrower than forecasted. Her announcement also comes weeks after a brutal attack on her husband, Paul, last month in their San Francisco home.
