TL;DR

California Rep. Kevin Kiley announced he is switching his party designation from Republican to independent and will run for reelection in the Democratic-leaning 6th District on a no-party-preference ballot, while continuing to caucus with Republicans. He also said he won’t seek reelection in his current 3rd District after redistricting tilted districts toward Democrats. He becomes the first independent in the House since 2019, though he remains aligned with the Republican caucus.
