Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) announced Monday he will not seek reelection, opening up a major swing seat as Democrats try to win back control of the House in 2026.

Bacon, who represents a district won by former Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024, announced his retirement in what would be a competitive race for a seat Democrats have sought after since he won in 2016. The Nebraska centrist pointed to his family as a reason for him stepping away from his time in Washington come January 2027.
