Gerry Connolly, top Democrat on the Oversight Committee and Rep since the Dawn of Time, to step down at the end of this Congress

Party of youth!

Rep. Gerry Connolly, the top Democrat on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, will step down from his leadership post on the panel and not run for reelection.
The Virginia Democrat, whose constituency includes many federal workers, cited the return of his esophageal cancer - first diagnosed in late 2024 - as the reason for his planned departure.

VA-11, his district, is very heavily Democrat, so don't expect a pickup. Do expect, however, a Resistance idol to take the primary and the seat next Congress. Someone young, dumb, and full of...ideas about how Trump needs to be impeached for the good of illegal immigrant gangbangers.
