Former Rep. Doug Collins Will Not Seek Office: ‘Goodbye for Now, but Probably Not Forever’Hannah Bleau 26 Apr 2021
Former Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA) announced Monday he will not seek political office this election cycle, although he said he will stay involved in shaping the conservative message to help Republicans win the House and Senate, and he hinted that his decision is not necessarily permanent.
“I am announcing today that I will not be a candidate for any office in the next election cycle,” the Georgia Republican said in a statement, briefly highlighting some of his accomplishments in Congress, including the passage of the First Step Act:
It has been a joy to serve in both Georgia Legislature and the United States Congress. During my time in Congress, I was able to accomplish a great deal for the folks that I served, including historic criminal justice reform with the passage of the First Step Act. As Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, I fought each and every day to uphold our Constitutional rights and the freedoms we cherish. I have always believed that when you are given the privilege of serving, you should strive to pass meaningful legislation that impacts people’s everyday lives. I’m proud we were able to do just that.
