Illinois Democrat Rep. Cheri Bustos announced Friday she would retire from Congress after this term.
“As I turn every corner on each decade of life, I take time to reflect and evaluate what my next chapter might bring,” she said in a statement. “That’s how, 10 years ago, I decided to run for Congress. And it’s why, today, I am announcing I will not seek reelection after completing this term.”
Bustos represents a district in northwestern Illinois that has shifted to the right.
Donald Trump won her district twice, and she won reelection by a narrower margin than expected in 2020.

Here’s where you ripped off the material from:

Exactly. This is the headline I want to see.
Democrat Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi Announces Retirement
Nancy will try he best to Die as Speaker
Nancy will try he best to Die as Speaker

And I sincerely wish her all the best at succeeding as soon as possible.
I also found this paragraph buried as the next to last paragraph from the end about her last election:
“Bustos, a five term incumbent, retires after winning 2020 reelection by just 4 points, compared to her nearly 25-point win in 2018, according to The Hill newspaper.”

Pelosi is an ancient, why isn’t she retiring? Is she human?
Thanks. Had a brain fart. Nevertheless, logic may apply to Illinois as well don’t you think?
I don’t think logic applies to CA, IL, NY, or most of New England.
I would so love to have either Vincent Price or Boris Karloff read this post, out loud... in the well of the House. Would it resonate there?
I guess she felt like she had done enough damage now that the Republic is dead. Mission Accomplished.
You're not wrong. You know who's really pissed at himself right now though? Andrew Cuomo. He's kicking himself for killing off so many old people now that NY has lost a seat in the HoR.
A big chunk of Northwestern Illinois is a big shithole thanks to her "leadership" .... so there's that.
