Rep. Andy Kim (D-NJ) has announced his plans to challenge Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) for his Senate seat in the upcoming election, after Menendez was charged with bribery in a recent indictment. Kim, joined by Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) and Democratic state committee chairman LeRoy J. Jones Jr., has called for Menendez to step down, saying "We cannot jeopardize the Senate or compromise our integrity." The election for the New Jersey Senate seat will take place in November 2020, and it is unclear if Menendez will seek re-election.
