Rep. Jackie Speier explains why she's leaving Congress.

House Democrat Jackie Speier has announced she won’t seek reelection after nearly 14 years in Congress. Back in 1978, she narrowly survived the infamous Jonestown Massacre, and she explains to Michel Martin how it was that this moment inspired her life in public service—and why she has chosen to step back.
