Cleo Fields declines congressional re-election, seeks Louisiana Senate District 14 seat
The segment presents Rep. Cleo Fields' July 21, 2026 statement announcing he will not seek re-election to the U.S. House in Louisiana's 6th District. He instead plans to run for the unexpired term in Louisiana State Senate District 14 following the death of Sen. Larry Selders. The video quotes the statement directly and notes the role of redistricting that placed Fields outside his current congressional seat. It draws from his official House press release and references recent Louisiana legislative map changes.
