The White House on Tuesday congratulated Sen. Dianne Feinstein's apparent retirement, saying she was a"friend and colleague" of the president for more than 30 years.
Jean-Pierre particularly pointed to the 1994"assault weapons" ban that Feinstein and Biden worked on together in the Senate. Feinstein was first elected to the upper chamber in 1992, 20 years after Biden. The president has repeatedly pledged to recreate the ban, which expired in 2004. Despite the press release from her office, she denied Tuesday afternoon that she had decided not to seek reelection.Her staffer promptly let her know a statement had been released, to which she responded, “You put out the statement? I should have known they put it out.”
