Big news today:

x It’s time for @SenFeinstein to resign. We need to put the country ahead of personal loyalty. While she has had a lifetime of public service, it is obvious she can no longer fulfill her duties. Not speaking out undermines our credibility as elected representatives of the people. — Ro Khanna (@RoKhanna) April 12, 2023

California Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna is calling for California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein to resign – a rare instance of a lawmaker urging a member of their own party to step down from Congress.

“It’s time for @SenFeinstein to resign. We need to put the country ahead of personal loyalty. While she has had a lifetime of public service, it is obvious she can no longer fulfill her duties. Not speaking out undermines our credibility as elected representatives of the people,” Khanna said Wednesday on Twitter.

The 89-year-old Feinstein announced in early March that she had been hospitalized and was receiving treatment for shingles. On March 7, Feinstein said on Twitter that she was recovering at home as she continued to receive treatment, and she said that she looked forward to returning to the Senate “as soon as possible.”

Feinstein has not announced when she will return to the chamber. Earlier this year, the California Democrat announced that she would not run for reelection.
