Republican Rep. Tom Marino announces resignation
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/pa-...private-sector
Rep. Tom Marino, R-Pa., announced his resignation on Thursday with the longtime lawmaker saying he was taking a job in the private sector.
Marino, who was re-elected in November to a fifth term in the House, said that his last day in office will be Jan. 23.
"Having spent over two decades serving the public, I have chosen to take a position in the private sector where I can use both my legal and business experience to create jobs around the nation," Marino said in a statement.
He added: "I want to thank the people of the 12th Congressional District of Pennsylvania for the faith they have placed in me to represent them in Congress. It truly has been one of the greatest honors of my life.”
It is unclear when Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf will hold a special election to choose Marino’s successor. In April, Wolf had 10 days to set a date for a special election after Congressman Charlie Dent resigned from Pennsylvania’s 15th Congressional District.
The 66-year-old Marino is a former county and federal prosecutor who co-chaired Donald Trump's successful presidential campaign in Pennsylvania."A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself"

He was definitely a statist.

Re: Republican Rep. Tom Marino announces resignation
WTF, that's criminal. Why wouldn't he have announced this last year instead of going through an election.
Not that I care one way or another if he is in office, there was a lot of Waste getting to this day and now more to replace him.
There should be a full investigation into where he's going and where the money came from to put him there. Something in this smells and it's not just that normal politician stink.

Re: Republican Rep. Tom Marino announces resignation
What a total waste of time, we could have nominated someone else. Now we have to have a special election and all that BS.
I know he had some health issues in the past, so maybe that is the real story.

Re: Republican Rep. Tom Marino announces resignation
I think it would be hard for them to do that. The 12th is the infamous 'T' in the middle of PA. Pennsyltucky I believe the libtards call it. He won handily.

Re: Republican Rep. Tom Marino announces resignation
It's a very Republican district. Typically 70% of votes go to Republicans here in my county.
However the dems will make a run at it.

They probably got pictures of him kiddie fiddling at a Penn State event.
