Liz Cheney Running For Congress In Wyoming

The 49-year-old attorney is making her second run for office in Wyoming after she dropped a 2014 primary challenge to Republican Sen. Mike Enzi, citing "serious health issues" in her family. She filed paperwork Friday with the Federal Election Commission to make her candidacy official.

She was running against an incumbent who was endorsed by Alan Simpson, a former Wyoming senator who remains popular throughout the state.
