DescriptionFreshman Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, will run for a second term rather than wage an intraparty campaign against Sen. Bob Bennett, R-Utah.

Chaffetz called his first year of service in the U.S. House of Representatives a great honor Wednesday as he announced his decision.

"I truly do believe, more than ever, that the best hope for the United States of America, the best hope for Utah, is to return to the conservative principles ... and I want to continue to do that," Chaffetz said in a press conference at West Valley City Hall.

"I'm more fired up than I've ever been. I'm more optimistic than I've ever been," he said.
