Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), 84, was hospitalized in Luxembourg while traveling with a congressional delegation to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. Her spokesperson confirmed the injury but did not provide details about its nature. Pelosi is receiving excellent care from medical professionals, according to the statement.
The injury occurred during an official engagement, and Pelosi was admitted to the hospital for evaluation. While she continues to work, Pelosi expressed regret about missing the remaining events of the trip, which were meant to honor the courage and heroism of American servicemembers during a pivotal moment in history.
The delegation, which includes 18 House lawmakers, was led by Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and scheduled to participate in anniversary observances over the weekend. Despite her absence, Pelosi’s commitment to public service and the significance of the event remain central to her message.
Pelosi stepped down from her leadership role in the Democratic caucus last year after two decades of service, passing the torch to a younger generation of lawmakers. Nevertheless, she remains active in Congress, juggling House votes, public appearances, and international engagements like this one.
Her dedication to honoring history and advocating for the values she holds dear continues to define her legacy, even as she navigates this latest challenge.
