CONCORD — Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) said Wednesday she won’t run for re-election in 2026, bringing to an end a political career spanning a half-century.

In a video announcement, Shaheen said it has been “an incredible honor” to serve as a state lawmaker, governor and senator. She said the decision to step aside was a difficult one, but “it’s just time.”
