Republicans and Democrats are at loggerheads over funding, while Donald Trump is to make a mystery announcement from the Oval Office later today
Representative Jerry Nadler, a Democrat from Manhattan who played a major role in both impeachments of president Donald Trump, will not seek re-election in 2026 after holding his seat for 34 years, the New York Times reported on Monday, citing an interview with Nadler.
His office did not immediately respond to a Reuters request to confirm the report.
Nadler, 78, a liberal voice in Congress since 1992, said he believed it was time for a younger generation of Democrats to emerge.
Questions surrounding leadership age and generational change rocked the Democrats in 2024, when president Joe Biden, then 81, stepped down late in the presidential campaign amid concerns about his age.
