Barbara Lee running for California Senate
By 
We had a request for a thread on this:
Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee of California told fellow members of the Congressional Black Caucus on Wednesday that she plans to run for California’s U.S. Senate seat next year, two people familiar with the meeting tells CBS News.
Lee, 76, has represented Oakland, Berkeley and other parts of the Bay Area since 1998. She’s one of the most liberal members of Congress and was the only lawmaker to vote against authorizing the use of force against Afghanistan in 2001.
Lee has not made a formal announcement. Her decision to share her intentions with colleagues comes a day after Rep. Katie Porter, a Democrat who represents parts of Orange County, became the first contender to announce her 2024 plans.
I well remember the hysterical vitriol that Lee faced when she voted against the AUMF. Not sure we need another Democratic senator who is nearly as old as Mick Jagger however.
