Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.) said he will not be seeking reelection in 2020, citing the desire to spend more time with his family.

“The prime reason for my decision was that after 28 years of spending 4 days a week in Washington, D.C., it is time to end the weekly commute and be home in Seaford,” King, who has been in office for 14 terms, said in a Nov. 11 announcement.
