Granger won't seek reelection in 2024 - Roll Call

House Appropriations Chairwoman Kay Granger will retire from Congress rather than run again next year, the veteran lawmaker announced Wednesday.

Granger, 80, was first elected in 1996 and has been the top Republican on the Appropriations Committee since 2018. The news of her pending retirement was first reported by Fort Worth Report, a nonprofit newsroom that covers her district, which includes Fort Worth and its northwestern suburbs.
