Rep. Edwards To Run for Mikulski's Senate Seat

摘要

The top Democrat on the U.S. House Science space subcommittee announced March 10 she will run for the Senate seat currently held by the retiring Barbara Mikulski, further altering the space policy landscape on Capitol Hill. Rep. Donna Edwards (D-Md.) announced her plan to run for the Senate in a two-minute video released March 10. She is the second candidate to formally declare an intent to run for the seat being vacated by Mikulski, after Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) did so March 4. By electing to run for the Senate, Edwards forgoes running for re-election in the House.
