Rep. Jamie Raskin, Democrat of Maryland, says he is now in remission after undergoing chemotherapy treatments following his lymphoma diagnosis in December.

In an open letter to America, Raskin wrote that he has "a preliminary diagnosis of being 'in remission' from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with a 90% prognosis of no relapse."

"I am overwhelmed with gratitude and love," he said in the letter.
