Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced she will seek reelection in 2024, despite stepping down from her leadership position last Congress.
'Now more than ever our City needs us to advance San Francisco values and further our recovery,' Pelosi wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, Friday.
'Our country needs America to show the world that our flag is still there, with liberty and justice for ALL. That is why I am running for reelection — and respectfully ask for your vote.'
San Francisco is experiencing a major crime wave including smash-and-grab robberies and carjackings.
In August, the San Francisco Police Department said the city had nearly 1,670 car break-ins over 30 days, and there have been nearly 10,000 thefts from vehicles in the city so far this year.
Signs can be seen throughout the city warning residents and tourists not to leave anything inside their cars, but the crime rate has remained stubbornly high.
Pelosi, who was the first-ever woman speaker, was first elected to represent the people of San Francisco, California, in 1987.
It was unclear whether the former speaker would seek reelection after her husband Paul Pelosi was attacked in their California home last fall.
A man entered their house saying he was looking for Pelosi, and then hit Paul over the head with a hammer. The incident was captured on police body camera footage.
But Pelosi said the attack on her husband wouldn't impact her decision about whether to run for reelection.
