Two-term Democratic Senator Regine Biscoe Lee announced today she will not be running for re-election. The Rules committee chairperson released a statement saying it was a difficult decision, but she wants to spend more time with her daughters, "especially now in their formative years."

She said "serving in the 34th and 35th legislatures has been one of the greatest honors of my life."

Lee said she will be forever grateful to the people of Guam for putting their trust in her for the past two terms.
