Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney announced Thursday that she will forego a run for the open Senate seat in her home state, opting instead to seek reelection in the House where she will work to regain her Republican Party’s majority.

“Nancy Pelosi and the Socialist Democrats in the House of Representatives are threatening our freedom and our Wyoming values every day. They must be stopped,” Cheney tweeted in announcing her decision.

“Our nation is facing grave security challenges overseas and the House Democrats are working to weaken our president and embolden our enemies. Socialists in congress and among the presidential candidates are threatening our liberty and freedom,” she added.

“I believe I can have the biggest impact for the people of Wyoming by remaining in leadership in the House of Representatives & working to take our GOP majority back. I will not be running for the Senate in 2020. I plan to seek re-election to the House of Representatives,” the Wyoming Republican wrote in a third tweet.

Cheney, the No. 3 Republican in the House, had been at the center of much speculation after Sen. Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.) announced in May that he was retiring at the end of his term.

The daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who also once held the seat, currently serves as House Republican Conference chairwoman.

Her high-powered position puts her in an ideal position to become the first female Republican Speaker of the House should the party take back the majority, according to The Hill.
