Van Hollen Statement on Running for Majority Leader

Today, U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) released the following statement regarding his decision to run for majority leader: “In this election, the American people called for change. They called for a change from Donald Trump’s disastrous policies – but even bigger than that, a change from the status quo that isn’t working for working people. “It’s now on us to meet this moment, and to do that we need new leadership. This is not about any one person – it’s about answering the call of the American people. That is why I’m running for Senate Majority Leader.”
