Cardin, 79, has been a fixture in Maryland politics for decades. A number of Democrats have already begun exploring potential runs for his seat.
Sen. Ben Cardin is expected to reveal Monday that he will not seek reelection in 2024, bringing his half-century career in public office to a close once he finishes his term.
He began his career in the Maryland General Assembly in the 1960s, running his first campaign while he was still in law school in 1966, before climbing the ranks to House speaker in 1979. Public service ran in the family. A third-generation Marylander from Baltimore and the grandson of Russian-Jewish immigrants, Cardin filled the seat in the State House vacated by his uncle and was the son of a state lawmaker who became a judge.
