It was with tremendous sadness that I heard the announcement that Jason Chaffetz will not seek reelection in 2018.
I have considered him one of the smarter and more honorable members of the House of Representatives. He has shouldered
some heavy committee assignments and been persistent in search of the truth.
Being the upstanding person that he is, he understands that public service should not be a career. He has given his service
and returns to the private sector. While he may be from Utah, the entire country benefitted from his time in the House of Representatives. It is my sincere hope that, in the future, he will return to public service. In the meantime, I wish him well and thank him for his service.
