Former Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., officially resigned from the House last week, and according to House precedent, his resignation is final and cannot be revoked. Gaetz's letter of resignation stated that he was stepping aside 'effective immediately.'
Although Gaetz was re-elected to his seat for the new Congress, he indicated in his letter to the House clerk that he did not intend to take the oath of office for the 119th Congress in order to pursue a position in the Trump Administration as Attorney General.
