U.S. Congressman Says A Sign From God Helped With His Decision To R esign

(Aleteia) Family comes first for Rep. Sean Duffy. Earlier his week US Congressman Sean Duffy announced his decision to resign from Congress to help care for his ninth child due in October. The reason behind this decision became clear on Tuesday when the congressman and his wife Rachel Campos-Duffy who hosts Fox Nation explained on Fox & Friends that their daughter has holes in her heart which will necessitate significant surgery and a lot of love and attention from mom and dad as reported by Scott Stump for Today. With such challenges ahead the 47-year-old wanted to prioritize his family. That family already includes eight children ranging in age from 3 to 19. Duffy shared on the program that his schedule was grueling" with four days a week in D.C. and the rest of his time back home in Wisconsin with his constituents. But as he points out in a lengthy post on Facebook the driving force behind his political career and the battles he has fought representing the 7th district in Wisconsin has been his family.
