本届任期结束后，离开美国众议院的共和党人数量已创下历史新高，这加剧了党内对众议院本就岌岌可危的席位优势的担忧。
目前已有35名众议院共和党人宣布退休或寻求更高职位。根据布鲁金斯学会的数据，这是自1930年以来最多的一次，超过了2018年的上一纪录（当时共和党人在中期选举中失去了41个众议院席位）。（注：如得克萨斯州共和党众议员丹·克伦肖等未获得重新提名的成员未计入此数字）
俄克拉荷马州共和党众议员凯文·赫尔恩（Kevin Hern）周三成为共和党议会第35位宣布离职的成员，他表示将竞选美国参议院席位。
赫尔恩希望在被确认担任国土安全部长后，填补参议员马克韦恩·穆林（Markwayne Mullin）的完整任期。作为一名前商人，赫尔恩于2018年首次当选众议院议员，也是穆林被提名后首个竞选该席位的人。
“激进左派和反对特朗普总统‘美国优先’议程的‘共和党人中的共和党人’正威胁着美国梦，他们希望把美国变成一个第三世界国家，”赫尔恩在宣布视频中表示。
“因此我竞选美国参议院：确保特朗普总统拥有忠诚盟友。”
众议院共和党人纷纷离职的趋势本周期已创造历史。
本周期有10名众议院共和党人竞选州长，这是自1974年以来，两党中竞选州长人数最多的一次（CNN汇总数据显示）。
赫尔恩宣布离职之际，议长迈克·约翰逊（Mike Johnson）已需要党内近乎一致的支持才能推进立法，这使得共和党人面临的中期选举环境日益严峻。
总体而言，两党共有56名众议院议员宣布退休或寻求其他职位，仍低于1992年创下的65人的总纪录。其中16人（包括赫尔恩）将竞选参议院席位。
A record number of Republicans are leaving the House

The number of Republicans leaving the US House of Representatives after this term has reached a historic high, deepening concern in the conference over the chamber’s already razor-thin margins.
Thirty-five House Republicans are now retiring or running for higher office. That’s the most since at least 1930, according to data from the Brookings Institution, and surpasses the previous record from 2018, a midterm cycle when Republicans lost a whopping 41 House seats. (Members who lost renomination, like Texas Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw, are not included in these numbers.)
Oklahoma Republican Rep. Kevin Hern became the 35th member of the GOP conference to announce his departure Wednesday, saying he would run for the US Senate.
Hern is hoping to fill Sen. Markwayne Mullin’s seat for a full term, should he be confirmed as homeland security secretary. A former businessman, Hern was first elected to the House in 2018 and is the first to jump into the race since Mullin was nominated.
“The American dream is under threat by the radical left and RINO Republicans who oppose President Trump’s America First agenda and want to turn the United States into a third world country,” Hern said in his announcement video.
“That’s why I’m running for U.S. Senate: to ensure President Trump has a loyal ally.”
House Republicans headed toward the exits had already made history this cycle.
There are 10 House Republicans running for governor this cycle, the most who have run from either party in the available data compiled by CNN dating back to 1974.
Hern’s announcement comes as Speaker Mike Johnson already needs near-unanimous support of his party to advance legislation, adding to what increasingly looks like a tough midterm environment for Republicans.
In total, 56 House members from both parties are retiring or running for other offices, still short of the overall record of 65 set in 1992. Sixteen of those members, including Hern, are running for Senate.
