Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) revealed Wednesday his intention to step down from his Democratic leadership role in Congress. However, he will still be running for reelection in 2024.
In a statement, the South Carolina Democrat said he informed Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) that he would be leaving the position on the caucus leadership team. He expressed confidence in the current Democratic leadership, including Jeffries, Minority Whip Katherine Clark (D-MA), and Democratic Caucus Chairman Pete Aguilar (D-CA), to “continue the important work of putting people over politics.”
