Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) announced Sunday that he won’t run for the Senate seat vacated by retiring Senator Dianne Feinstein. Instead, he will endorse fellow Rep. Barbara Lee and will co-chair her campaign to be California’s new senator.

Khanna made his announcement on CNN’s “State of the Union,” saying that the House was “the best place” for him to advance progressive policy.
