Gaetz's Political Future Uncertain Amid AG Nomination Withdrawal

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) resigned from Congress after being nominated by President-elect Trump for attorney general, amid an ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation. Although Gaetz could potentially run for his old seat in a special election, his resignation complicates his return to Congress, as it triggers the need for a special election to fill the vacancy. Gaetz's political future remains uncertain, and he would lose his seniority if he returned to Congress.
