Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) announced on Friday that he plans to resign from his congressional seat early, further narrowing Republicans’ already slim majority in the House.
The announcement that he’s leaving his House seat on April 19 comes little over a month after Gallagher said he would not be seeking re-election.
“Four terms serving Northeast Wisconsin in Congress has been the honor of a lifetime and strengthened my conviction that America is the greatest country in the history of the world,” he said in a statement posted to X.
