Rep. Kurt Bills (R-District 37B), Rosemount, said Wednesday that he will make an announcement regarding his "future service to the citizens of Minnesota" at 9:30 a.m. Thursday.

He reportedly told media on Monday that he had been considering running for the U.S. Senate seat held by Democrat Amy Klobuchar, and Thursday's announcement is expected to have to do with his decision.
