Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, 87, vows to remain chair of the House Financial Services Committee if Democrats win the midterm majority. The California congresswoman dismissed concerns about her age, declaring to Politico, “If you take a look at my energy and what I do - I am Auntie Maxine.” Waters popularized the phrase “reclaiming my time” and insists she still has the fight needed to tackle issues like cryptocurrency regulation.
A recent poll shows 63% of voters favor age limits for elected officials, with 70 as the cutoff. This would disqualify high-profile figures like Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, along with Reps. Bennie Thompson and Jim Clyburn. Waters, serving California’s 43rd Congressional District since 1991, defends her 'bipartisan record' and insists everyone deserves a chance to run.
