Republican Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales announced he will resign from Congress on Monday.
In March, the House Ethics Committee opened an investigation into Gonzales over allegations of sexual misconduct involving a staff member and claims that he improperly granted preferential treatment within his congressional office. Gonzales took to X to announce his decision to step down.
“There is a season for everything and God has a plan for us all. When Congress returns tomorrow, I will file my retirement from office. It has been my privilege to serve the great people of Texas,” Gonzales wrote.
