U.S. Representative Todd Rokita (IN-04) issued the following statement after the announcement that Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) will resign his position and retire from Congress:
"I thank John Boehner for his service to our nation and wish him and his family the best moving forward. The reason that he gave us this morning for leaving demonstrates, perhaps most eloquently, his humble, servant leadership, character, and the respect he has for the institution and country," said Rep. Rokita.
