Rep. Linda Sanchez is Expecting

Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.) is pregnant, reports the Los Angeles Times.

Sanchez told Times’ columnist Patt Morrison that she plans to marry the father, Jim Sullivan, a public relations consultant. Sanchez, 39, said the pregnancy isn’t a surprise.

“I’m established in my life,” she said. “I have a career. I’m financially stable. I have a loving, committed partner. This is something that was planned, not something that was accidental.”

She also plans to get married to Sullivan, though no wedding date has been set.
