<p>Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) endorsed Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/adam-schiff" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Adam Schiff</a> (D-CA) for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/senate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate</a> if Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/dianne-feinstein" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dianne Feinstein</a> (D-CA) chooses not to seek re-election in 2024.</p>
<p>The longtime Democratic leader chose Schiff over Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA), <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/embattled-democrat-announces-bid-for-senate-seat-dianne-feinstein-hasnt-vacated" target="_blank" rel="noopener">who announced a Senate campaign last month</a>, and Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA), who is widely expected to join the race.</p>
<p>If Feinstein decides not to run, &#8220;I will be supporting House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff, who knows well the nexus between a strong democracy and a strong economy,&#8221; <a href="https://mobile.twitter.com/mmcauliff/status/1621134549416611840" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pelosi said in a statement Thursday</a>. &#8220;In his service in the House, he has focused on strengthening our democracy with justice and on building an economy that works for all.&#8221;</p>
<p>Local media <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/pelosi-adam-schiff-senate-17758147.php">described</a> the development as &#8220;the strongest sign yet that Feinstein will not seek re-election.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://mobile.twitter.com/mmcauliff/status/1621144105647771650" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a statement of his own</a>, Schiff said he is &#8220;honored to have earned&#8221; Pelosi&#8217;s support. He said after Pelosi made clear her stance, 20 current and former members of the California delegation also endorsed his campaign for Senate.</p>
<p>Schiff, whose district includes parts of Los Angeles County, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/adam-schiff-will-run-for-dianne-feinsteins-senate-seat" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced his campaign</a> for Senate two days after Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mccarthy-formally-kicks-schiff-and-swalwell-from-house-intel-integrity-matters-more" target="_blank" rel="noopener">removed him from the House Intelligence Committee</a> over accusations of repeated lying. Schiff called the move &#8220;petty, political payback&#8221; for his participation in investigations into former President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Pelosi said the United States is at a &#8220;crossroads&#8221; leading up to the 2024 election, casting the Democrats as the defenders of democracy and freedom while characterizing Republicans as being beholden to special interests.</p>
<p>“Ever since I supported Adam in his race for Congress in 2000, I have known his commitment to putting the American Dream in place for everyone,” Pelosi said in her statement first <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/pelosi-adam-schiff-senate-17758147.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">given to the San Francisco Chronicle</a>. “Coming from a family of immigrants, Adam has dedicated his life to public service. Every time I have asked Adam to take on the tough fight against extremist forces, he has responded with integrity, strength and success.”</p>
<p>Feinstein has not yet shared whether she will seek another term. <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-01-30/feinstein-keeps-everyone-guessing-by-waiting-on-2024-senate-decision" target="_blank" rel="noopener">She told Bloomberg News</a> late last month she would share her plans &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/feinstein-contradicts-herself-on-timing-of-2024-announcement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in the spring sometime.</a>&#8221;</p>
<p>At the age of 89, Feinstein is the Senate&#8217;s oldest member, and in recent years her colleagues have raised <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/nicholasreimann/2022/04/14/lawmakers-say-dianne-feinsteins-mental-fitness-rapidly-worsening-report-claims/?sh=3d561a830b80" target="_blank" rel="noopener">concerns about her mental fitness</a>. She raised less than $600 in the last three months and has under $10,000 in her campaign account, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/3839838-feinstein-raises-600-with-less-than-10k-in-funds-amid-senate-2024-speculation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hill reported Wednesday</a>.</p>
<p>In her statement, Pelosi praised Feinstein as an &#8220;iconic&#8221; senator with a &#8220;remarkable legislative record.&#8221; Feinstein &#8220;has my whole-hearted support&#8221; if she does decide to run for re-election, Pelosi added.</p>
