Rep. Bart Stupak, the Michigan Democrat who led a months-long battle with President Obama and his party’s leaders over abortion language before ultimately supporting their health care bill, said Friday he won’t seek re-election this year. “I’ve accomplished what I want to do,” he said at a press conference in Michigan, saying that passing health care legislation was a good way to cap his more than 17 years in Congress.
