U.S. Representative Jim Clyburn, a veteran Democrat from South Carolina, announces his bid for an eighteenth term, potentially playing a crucial role if his party regains the House majority. At 85, hes the longest-serving Democrat from his state and one of the oldest in Congress. Despite retirements of Pelosi and Hoyer, Clyburn plans to stay on, positioning himself to work with Jeffries as the first Black House speaker. His daughters encouragement and strong reelection performance fuel his decision. Filing for South Carolina races begins Monday, with primaries on June ninth. A win would make him the longest-serving South Carolinian in House history.
