Steny Hamilton Hoyer (; born June 14, 1939) is an American attorney and politician serving as U.S.
Representative for Maryland's 5th congressional district since 1981 and as House Majority Leader since 2019.
A Democrat, he was first elected in a special election on May 19, 1981, and is currently serving in his 20th term.
The district includes a large swath of rural and suburban territory southeast of Washington, D.C.
Hoyer is the dean of the Maryland Congressional delegation, and the most senior Democrat in the House. Since 2003, Hoyer has been the second ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives behind Nancy Pelosi.
He is a two-time House Majority Leader, having previously served in the post from 2007 to 2011 under Speaker Pelosi.
During two periods of Republican House control (2003–2007 and 2011–2019), Hoyer served as House Minority Whip, both times under Minority Leader Pelosi.
As a result of the 2018 midterm elections, in which the Democrats took control of the House, Hoyer was re-elected Majority Leader in January 2019 on the opening of the 116th Congress, remaining the number two House Democrat behind Speaker Pelosi.
