Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., abruptly announced on Tuesday that he will resign from Congress later this month instead of serving out the rest of his term.
Buck announced on social media that he would step down at the end of next week. The longtime lawmaker, a member of the House Freedom Caucus who has emerged as a critic of the MAGA wing of the party, previously said he would not run for another term. He was one of three Republicans to vote against the impeachment of Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas and criticized the GOP push to impeach President Joe Biden.
