U.S. Rep. Joe Kennedy III, D-Mass., has ruled out a 2020 presidential run, despite being the subject of speculation.
"I've got enough on my plate," the three-term House member said on ABC News' "Powerhouse Politics" podcast.
"I actually am one of those folks that encourage a big, broad field and that's because I think we are at a time our country is in a transition, economically, societally, culturally," Kennedy told Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl and Political Director Rick Klein.
Kennedy went on to call the upcoming election "critically important."
