Rep. Ted Deutch (D-Fla.) announced on Monday that he will not run for reelection in November, becoming the 31st House Democrat to announce they will not run for reelection in the lower chamber this November.
Deutch will become the CEO of the American Jewish Committee, and in his statement he highlighted an “unprecedented rise in antisemitism” in the U.S. and around the globe.
Deutch, 55, has represented Florida in Congress since 2010, but moved to the 22nd congressional district from the 21st district in 2017 after redistricting.
The race before Deutch’s announcement was not considered competitive by the Cook Political Report and Deutsch won with 56 percent of the vote in 2020.
CBS Miami first reported on Deutch’s decision to not run for reelection.
