Rep. Brenda Lawrence of Michigan becomes 25th Democrat to not seek reelection
Fox News
Michigan Democrat U.S. Rep. Brenda Lawrence announced on Tuesday she won’t seek reelection this November.
Lawrence was first elected to the U.S. House in 2014 and is the only Black member of Michigan's congressional delegation, according to FOX 2 in Detroit.
Lawrence is the 25th Democrat to announce retirement plans ahead of the 2022 midterms. Her decision came after the state's new redistricting map put her hometown in U.S. Rep. Debbie Dingell’s district and divided some majority Black neighborhoods in Lawrence’s district, Politico reported.
