Sen. Gary Peters (D., Mich.), ranking member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, has announced that he doesn’t plan to run for a third term next year.

“At this point in my life, I have been able to write many different chapters, and I look forward to the new ones with both anticipation and excitement,” Sen. Peters said in a videotaped message.

He was first elected to Congress as a House member in 2008. During his time on the Homeland Security committee, he was instrumental in winning the passage of the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act and other cybersecurity legislation.
