Description | WASHINGTON – Rep. Xavier Becerra, D-Calif., said Tuesday he will stay in the House and pass on becoming U.S. trade representative in Barack Obama's administration.
Becerra emerged as the leading candidate for the post and interviewed with Obama earlier this month. In a telephone interview with The Associated Press, he said he decided he wanted to stay in the House to work on various issues, including immigration reform and universal health care.
He said he'd informed the Obama team of his decision. |
