GET ME REWRITE: NBC offers up misleading headline about Congressional retirements

 
As just about every other news outlet has done lately.

Headline:  NBC News. 12/24/2023
So far, 35 House members — 23 Democrats and 12 Republicans — have announced they are retiring or leaving the chamber to run for other offices, according to the House press gallery.

As Ballotpedia notes in the following entry:   List of U.S. Congress incumbents who did not run for re-election in 2022
Fifty-five members of Congress—six members of the U.S. Senate and 49 members of the U.S. House— announced they would not seek re-election in 2022.  [emphasis added]
