Rep. Rick Renzi (R-AZ) Will Not Seek Re-Election

Rep. Rick Renzi (R-AZ), who is under investigation for corruption, will not seek re-election. From Roll Call:

Renzi's retirement announcement adds to a list of GOP Members planning to depart upon the conclusion of the 110th Congress, including Reps. Ray LaHood (Ill.), Deborah Pryce (Ohio) and Chip Pickering (Miss.), as well as former Speaker and Rep. Dennis Hastert (Ill.).

Federal agents raided Renzi's family business in April. Shortly afterwards, Renzi stepped down from his three committee assignments.
