Jackie Speier (born June 28, 1950) is an American politician who served as the U.S. Representative for California's 14th congressional district from 2008 to 2023. Before her time in Congress, she served in the California State Assembly and the California State Senate.
Born in Alameda, California, Speier began her political career working as a staff member for Congressman Leo Ryan. She accompanied Ryan on a fact-finding mission to Jonestown, Guyana, in 1978, where she was severely wounded in an attack that claimed Ryan's life and the lives of several others. This tragic event shaped her career and commitment to public service. After recovering from her injuries, Speier served on the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors and in the California State Assembly and Senate.
In 2008, Speier was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. During her time in Congress, she focused on issues such as consumer protection, gun violence prevention, military sexual assault, and women's rights. She was a vocal advocate for victims of sexual harassment and assault, sharing her own experiences and working to change the culture of silence surrounding these issues.
Speier served on several influential committees, including the House Armed Services Committee and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. She was known for her sharp questioning during hearings and her dedication to holding powerful institutions accountable.
Speier announced in November 2021 that she would not seek re-election in 2022. Her retirement marked the end of a long and distinguished career in public service. She is remembered for her resilience, her advocacy for victims, and her commitment to representing her constituents.
