Progressives frustrated with Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) plan to keep up the heat on the longtime senator after her Monday announcement that she’ll run for reelection.
After months of remaining silent on a reelection run in 2018, Feinstein tweeted Monday morning that she’s “all in” and wants to continue working on issues including “ending gun violence, combating climate change, access to health care.”
The latest reelection bid from Feinstein, the oldest senator at 84, quickly earned endorsements from leading California Democrats. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told the Washington Post that Feinstein’s retirement would have been a “tremendous loss,” while Sen. Kamala Harris said California is “better off with her leadership.”
