Former Rep. Joe Walsh, who started a 2020 presidential campaign that came up short, expressed appreciation to Amash for not launching a campaign.

Some Republicans, including Walsh, were worried that Amash would “siphon enough votes” from Joe Biden, who is expected to be the 2020 Democratic nominee for president, POLITICO reported.

Amash, who started as a congressman in 2010 during the tea party wave, departed from the Republican Party in July 2019 after penningWashington Post op-ed about having grown “disenchanted” with party politics.
