Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) filed paperwork on May 25, 2026, to run for his House seat in Kentucky's 4th Congressional District in the 2028 elections. However, he stated that he has not made a final decision regarding which office he may seek. Massie indicated that filing allows him to raise funds to support his political operations as both a current office holder and a potential candidate for federal office. He recently lost a primary election to Ed Gallrein, who was endorsed by President Donald Trump, in a highly competitive race. During an interview on 'Meet the Press,' Massie mentioned that he has not ruled out a presidential run in 2028 but is currently enjoying time on his farm with family. He attributed his recent electoral loss to his bipartisan efforts to release information related to Jeffrey Epstein, stating that it demonstrated cooperation between parties.
