GOP Rep. Sean Duffy to resign from Congress
By Haley Byrd
Wisconsin Republican Sean Duffy announced Monday that he will resign from Congress next month, joining nine other House Republicans who have announced their own planned departures in recent weeks.
Duffy, a Trump ally who has represented Wisconsin's 7th district since being elected in 2010, wrote in a Facebook post that he would be stepping down on September 23, citing a desire to spend more time with his family ahead of the upcoming birth of his ninth child.
Duffy said he and his wife, Fox News contributor Rachel Campos-Duffy, had learned about health complications with the pregnancy, including a heart condition, and that the baby "will need even more love, time, and attention."
"With much prayer, I have decided that this is the right time for me to take a break from public service in order to be the support my wife, baby and family need right now," Duffy wrote.
