Michigan rep to break term limits pledge

Rep. Dan Benishek (R-Mich.) will run for reelection in 2016, breaking a pledge he made to leave office after three terms.

“Serving Northern Michigan has been — and continues to be — a privilege, and it is my sincere hope that the voters of the 1st District will allow me to continue representing them and their families,” he told the Detroit Free Press. “I recognize this conflicts with past statements I made when first running for office.”
