Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan will challenge Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) for the role of House Democratic leader, he announced Thursday in a letter to the House's Democratic caucus.
"While having a position in Democratic leadership has never been my life's ambition, after this election I believe we all need to re-evaluate our roles within the caucus, the Democratic Party, and our country,” Ryan wrote, as reported by The Hill.
