Liz Cheney to announce congressional bid

Former Vice President Dick Cheney’s daughter will officially announce she’s running for Congress on Monday, according to a new report. 

{mosads}Liz Cheney filed federal election documents that show she’s running for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, The Associated Press reported Saturday. 

Campaign officials told the AP she plans to announce her candidacy Monday in Gillette, Wyo. 

Rep. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), who currently holds the seat, recently announced she would not be running for re-election.  

This is Cheney’s second major campaign. She ran for a U.S. Senate seat in Wyoming in 2013, but quit seven months before the 2014 primary, citing a health issue in the family.
