Rep. Cleo Fields announces he will not seek reelection

Rep. Cleo Fields (D-La.) will not seek reelection to the House and will instead run for state Senate due to the Supreme Court's ruling on the Voting Rights Act, which led to his district's elimination. He cited a need to serve locally after the court's decision, which he called a 'grave setback to voting rights.'
