Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) will depart Congress at the end of next week, narrowing House Republicans‘ majority even further as a wave of Republican incumbents prepares to leave at the end of this term.
Buck announced his early retirement on Tuesday in a post to X, after deciding in November last year that he would not seek reelection in 2024. He will finish his term as a congressman on March 22.
“Today, I am announcing that I will depart Congress at the end of next week,” Buck said Tuesday. “I look forward to staying involved in our political process, as well as spending more time in Colorado and with my family.”
