“If you care about what’s happening in the world, you have to care about running for and holding elected office,” Chelsea Clinton said last year.
The internet was abuzz with speculation this week on whether Chelsea Clinton would throw her hat in the political ring after longtime Rep. Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., announced Thursday that she would not seek re-election in 2020.
In an interview with The Journal News/lohud.com last year, Chelsea Clinton said she would consider a political run under certain circumstances. “If you care about what’s happening in the world, you have to care about running for and holding elected office,” she said. “I hope it’s a question that we ask ourselves.”
Today Nita Lowey the Democratic representative for NY 17th Congressional District announced she is retiring.

Referring to reports it would be used as a getaway home for the couple's daughter and her family, Roni Jacobson, who has lived on Old House Lane since 1984, said when the Clintons bought the house: "It's a perfect house for Chelsea. Perfect mother-daughter situation. The neighbors are delighted for them."
The mother-daughter duo have also been hitting the talk show circuit and making public appearances to promote their new book,"The Book of Gutsy Women: Favorite Stories of Courage and Resilience."
