DCCC Chairwoman Cheri Bustos Statement on 18th House Republican Retirement

“Congressman Cook’s retirement marks the 18th Republican in Washington to call it quits this year alone. As Republicans come to terms with life in the minority and the impossible task of defending their toxic and unpopular agenda of repealing health care protections for people with pre-existing conditions and giving tax handouts to the wealthy and big corporations at the expense of working families, it’s clear this retirement will not be the last. While Republican leadership tries to convince their Members to stick around, we will continue to push further into once ruby-red districts as we protect and expand this Democratic Majority.”
