Moline Democrat defeated Republican Bobby Schilling in 2012; Won narrow re-election bid in November

From the QC-Times:

Cheri Bustos said her decision came after a periodic assessment of her career, something she says she’s done every 10 years. The Moline Democrat said her health is good and that she has no future job lined up, other than to continue representing the 17th District.

“I have no plans over these next 20 months to do anything but great work for this congressional district,” Bustos said in a telephone interview. “I’ll be able to figure this out. I always have big dreams and big hopes, and so I’m confident that whatever the next chapter is, it will be something where I’ll be in a position to help make a difference.
