Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) called out her fellow Democrat, Illinois Rep. Chuy García, for his sudden retirement plan, leaving his chief of staff as the only option in a position to succeed him. Garcia says he stepped down due to his health, his wife’s worsening condition, and to help raise his grandchildren after the death of his daughter.
