Thom Tillis Announces Retirement Hours After Trump Threatened To Field Primary Challenger

Republican North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis will not seek reelection, according to a statement released by his office Sunday afternoon.

Tillis’ retirement announcement came just hours after voting “no” on advancing President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful” bill.

“In Washington over the last few years, it’s become increasingly evident that leaders who are willing to embrace bipartisanship, compromise, and demonstrate independent thinking are becoming an endangered species,” Tillis said in a statement. ” It’s not a hard choice, and I will not be seeking re-election.”
