Democratic Representative Seth Moulton has announced his challenge to incumbent Senator Ed Markey in the 2026 Massachusetts primary, citing a desire for new leadership and emphasizing that his challenge is not ideological, as he largely agrees with Markey on issues.
Senator Ed Markey has urged President Joe Biden to invoke the 14th Amendment to end the standoff over raising the debt limit, which he believes is crucial to defusing Republicans’ efforts to block the president’s policies, including climate legislation. GOP House members have laid out a series of policy demands as part of the talks on raising the limit, including speedier approvals of energy permits and a rescinding of much of Biden’s signature climate law. Markey believes that Biden needs to bypass Congress to prevent Republicans from extracting unreasonable concessions.
