Yet another Texas Republican congressman is announcing his retirement, as the party's mounting departures make regaining the House majority in next year's elections increasingly challenging.
Another Texas Republican congressman announced his retirement Monday as the party's mounting departures made it increasingly unlikely it will be able to regain the House majority in next year's elections.
Marchant, 68, gave no specific reason for his retirement in a written statement, saying"It is time" and adding,"I am looking forward to finishing out my term and then returning to Texas to start a new chapter." While Texas has been reliably Republican for decades, the state has been trending toward Democrats lately, especially in its growing suburbs. Marchant is the fourth Texas GOP congressman to say he is leaving.
