- U.S. Representative Joseph Kennedy III, a scion of the famed political dynasty, on Saturday launched a 2020 primary challenge against fellow Democrat Edward Markey for his U.S. Senate seat from Massachusetts.
“I’m running for U.S. Senate,” Joseph Kennedy III said in a post on his Facebook and Twitter pages. “This isn’t a time for waiting, for sitting on the sidelines, or for playing by rules that don’t work anymore. This is the fight of our lives, the fight of my generation — and I’m all in.” He did not mention Markey, instead launching a broadside against President Donald Trump and the Senate’s Republican majority, accusing them of policies that have hurt working Americans and the environment.
During his House career, Markey was one of a handful of lawmakers who led the fight for legislation, which narrowly passed the House in 2009, to bring down carbon emissions that contribute to climate change.
