U.S. Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-Texas), the chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives’s Budget Committee, announced on Nov. 11 that he would not seek reelection in 2026 and retire from Congress in 2027.
Arrington has represented Texas’s 19th Congressional District, which includes the cities of Lubbock and Abeline, since 2017. In that time, he rose to become the House Budget Committee’s chairman, taking that office in 2023. He has since been intimately involved in the negotiation of budget bills, including the One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed by President Donald Trump on July 4.
