On October 3, the US House of Representatives voted to impeach House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Republican Congressman Patrick McHenry was appointed acting Speaker of the House.
In his new position, one of the first actions of Mr. McHenry, a close ally of Mr. McCarthy, was to expel former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Democrat) from her private office by October 4, according to Fox News.
Nancy Pelosi has returned her office to the Capitol following orders from the Speaker of the House pro tempore.
The above office is a private place where only a few high-ranking figures in the House of Representatives are given such rooms.
In the email, Mr. McHenry said that Ms. Pelosi's office would be turned over to the Speaker of the House. "Please clean up this space. The locks will be changed tomorrow," the email read.
Pelosi moved out on October 3 with the help of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries' staff. Pelosi is in her hometown of California to pay her respects to the late Senator Dianne Feinstein, who recently passed away.

"With all the important decisions that the new Republican leadership has to make, which we are looking forward to, one of the first actions the Speaker pro tempore took was to order me to vacate my Capitol office immediately. This is a far cry from tradition. When I was Speaker, I gave former Speaker [Dennis] Hastert (R-Calif.) much larger offices for as long as he wanted," Pelosi said.

Former House Speaker Pelosi said office space wasn't important to her "but it seems important to them." "Now that the new Republican leadership has addressed this important issue, hopefully they'll get back to what's really important for the American people," Pelosi said.
