U.S. Rep. Pete Olson (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/2020-daily-trail-markers-voters-say-they-may-skip-muellers-testimony-to-congress/) of Texas announced Thursday he would not seek re-election after his current term, becoming the second Republican congressman this week to do so. Olson's retirement could set up a fierce battle in his district, which was once a safe Republican district but has become increasingly Democratic, and national Democrats have made it clear they are focusing on Texas as a battleground state in 2020.
