"Given all that my uncle accomplished, it was only natural to consider getting back involved in public office," said Kennedy on the website of the non-profit organization he founded, Citizens Energy.
"After much consideration, I have decided that the best way for me to contribute to those causes is by continuing my work at Citizens Energy Corporation."
Edward Kennedy held the Senate seat for almost four decades, giving the Boston-based family a major presence in Washington long after the assassinations of both president John F. Kennedy in 1963 and Robert F. Kennedy, as he campaigned for the White House, in 1968.
Joe Kennedy served in the House of Representatives, but left Congress in 1988.
The only other member of the family who some speculate could challenge for Ted Kennedy's seat is his widow Victoria.
