Bernie Sanders, 89, Indicates Next Term as Vermont Senator Will Be His Last
Dec 11, 2024, 01:02 AM
Senator Bernie Sanders has indicated that his next term as a U.S. Senator from Vermont is likely to be his last. Sanders, who will be 89 by the end of his current term, shared this sentiment in an interview with POLITICO. His tenure in Congress, which began in 1991, has been marked by his advocacy for progressive causes. The decision comes as Sanders reflects on his age and the political landscape in Vermont, where Democrats no longer hold a supermajority and there is no same-party appointment rule for his seat. He has six more years in office before this potential retirement.
