Rep. Adam Schiff announces 2024 Senate run, teeing up a high-profile primary
California Congressman Adam Schiff announced his run for Senate, entering what could be the most crowded and high-profile primary race of the 2024 cycle
Schiff announced his run in a Twitter video Thursday
He joins Rep. Katie Porter, who announced her bid for the seat earlier this month. Reps. Ro Khanna and Barbara Lee may also be considering a run.
The seat currently held by 89-year-old Dianne Feinstein is safely Democratic, but the rest of the 2024 Senate map is expected to be difficult for
the party – with incumbents up for reelection in swing states like Michigan, Ohio, and Arizona
Democrats are also up for reelection in solidly conservative Montana and West Virginia
Feinstein has not said whether she will run for reelection or retire next year
She told reporters she would likely make her decision "in a couple of months," but that she had no qualms with others entering the race before then.
