Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland is contemplating a run for Senate majority leader in the upcoming Congress, The Hill reported.
Van Hollen described himself as being "in listening mode" regarding the leadership position, indicating he is open to feedback from his party.
He emphasized that the selection should not be a predetermined decision, but rather the result of a caucus discussion among Democratic senators.
This approach suggests Van Hollen favors a collaborative process for choosing the next Senate majority leader, rather than an automatic appointment.
