“Members of Congress are leaving in droves. But some former legislators think the grass is still greener in Washington,” Politico reports.
“A handful of former members of Congress have launched House bids this cycle. For some, it’s been just a couple of years since they were last elected. And for others, it’s been decades. But regardless of the last time they’ve held federal office, should they win, they’ll be entering a Congress that is very different from their previous terms.”
