The 33-year-old Congressman made the announcement amid controversy over his alleged unethical spending of campaign contributions and taxpayer money.
Politico first reported on the news that the young Republican is stepping down.
“Today, I am announcing my resignation as a Member of the United States House of Representatives effective March 31,” Schock said in a statement, obtained by the news site. “I do this with a heavy heart. Serving the people of the 18th District is the highest and greatest honor I have had in my life.”
He thanked his constituents for their faith in him to represent their interests in Washington, D.C. – saying he gave his all over the last six years.
