U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly, R-16th, announced Tuesday, June 20, that he intends to seek reelection in 2024.

If elected, it will be his eighth term after taking office in 2010.

“I have fought hard for the people and values of Western Pennsylvania, and I am asking for their support for another term. Together we have accomplished so much – and I would like the opportunity to continue to bring our values to Washington, D.C., while bringing our taxpayer dollars back home,” Kelly said in a statement.
