‘OPB Politics Now:’ Peter DeFazio to retire, Jaime Herrera Beutler faces right-wing challenge

Oregon’s longest-serving member of Congress is retiring. A firebrand Trump-style Republican is trying to take out an incumbent. And we now have a lot more clarity on what 2022 Congressional races will look like in the Pacific Northwest.

On this week’s episode of OPB Politics Now, we’ll look at how this week’s big news changes next year’s fight for control of the U.S. House.

Correction: Peter DeFazio has announced plans to retire, but is still serving out his term. An earlier version of this story was unclear about his departure from Congress.
