Eshoo’s exit will also trigger a race to replace her as head of the Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee. (Trending: Biden Shamefully Removes God From National Address)

Rep. Anna Eshoo said, “As the first woman and the first Democrat to ever represent our district, I’m very proud of the body of bipartisan work I’ve been able to achieve on your behalf in Congress.”
“As my last year in Congress approaches, I will continue my work with vigor and unswerving commitment to you,” promised the 80 year old politician.
According to Roll Call, “Both Eshoo and Cárdenas represent seats in solidly Democratic districts. But Eshoo’s retirement will also prompt a race to replace her as head of the Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee. Rep. John Sarbanes, D-Md., and Cardenas were next in line and are both retiring.”
