Former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is receiving medical treatment after suffering an injury during a trip to Luxembourg. The 84-year-old Democrat was part of a bipartisan congressional delegation commemorating the 80th anniversary of the battle of the Bulge.
News reports indicate Pelosi sustained a hip injury after a fall. While details remain limited, her spokesperson, Ian Krager, released a statement assuring the public that she is “currently receiving excellent treatment from doctors and medical professionals.”
“Pelosi looks forward to returning home to the US soon,”
krager added in the statement. Despite her hospitalization,Pelosi continues to work from her hospital room.
Pelosi’s distinguished career spans seven presidential administrations. she served as Speaker of the House from 2007 to 2011 and again from 2019 to 2023, making her a prominent figure in American politics. Even after stepping down from the speakership,she remains a California representative in the House,having been re-elected last month to another two-year term.
The bipartisan delegation, including 17 other House members, traveled to Luxembourg for the anniversary events. The trip included planned participation with veterans, their families, and military officials. However, due to her injury, Pelosi will be unable to continue her participation in the planned commemorations.
This incident follows a similar event involving Senator Mitch McConnell, who recently suffered injuries after a fall at the U.S. Capitol. The back-to-back incidents involving high-profile political figures have raised concerns about the well-being of elected officials.
The nation awaits further updates on Pelosi’s condition and recovery. Her continued work from the hospital underscores her dedication to public service, even amidst personal challenges.
