"Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton reveals progressive supranuclear palsy diagnosis"

Rep. Jennifer Wexton, a Democrat from Virginia, has announced that she will not seek reelection due to a change in her diagnosis. Initially diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, Wexton has now been diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy, a rare neurological disorder that progresses more rapidly and has no cure. As her condition worsens and her symptoms make public speaking difficult, Wexton has decided to prioritize spending time with her family. Her decision leaves Democrats vulnerable in a competitive district that was previously held by Republicans for 40 years.
