US Rep. Greg Pence of Indiana, former VP Mike Pence’s older brother, won’t seek reelection

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican U.S. Rep. Greg Pence of Indiana said Tuesday he will not seek reelection this year to a fourth term, becoming the latest House member to announce that they won’t run for reelection.

Pence, the older brother of former Vice President Mike Pence, announced his decision Tuesday morning in a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter, which did not give any indication why he had decided not to run again for Indiana’s 6th District seat.

His famous sibling had held the seat for 12 years before later serving as Indiana’s governor. Greg Pence was first elected in 2018 to the seat, which spans parts of central, eastern and south-central Indiana.

“In 2017, I ran for Congress because I was Ready to Serve Again. As a former Marine Officer, I approached the job with purpose. After three terms, I’ve made the decision to not file for reelection,” Pence said in his statement.
