Biography
Steny Hamilton Hoyer ( STEN-ee HOY-ər; born June 14, 1939) is an American politician and retired attorney who has served as the U.S. representative for Maryland's 5th congressional district since 1981. From 2003 to 2023, Hoyer was the second-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives behind Nancy Pelosi. He served twice as House Majority Leader, from 2007 to 2011 and again from 2019 to 2023. Hoyer was first elected in a 1981 special election and began his 23rd term in 2025. His district includes a large swath of rural and suburban territory southeast of Washington, D.C. He is currently the most senior Democrat in the House and the dean of Maryland congressional delegation. Hoyer has also twice served as the House minority whip (2003–2007 and 2011–2019), with Pelosi as minority leader. In November 2022, Hoyer announced that he, along with Pelosi, would not seek a leadership position in the 118th Congress. He was re-elected in 2024, and on January 7, 2026, announced that he would not seek a 24th term in that year's election.
