GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (via WOOD TV) — U.S. Rep. Justin Amash has resigned from the House Freedom Caucus, which he helped found, weeks after he became the only Republican to call for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, CNN reports.
The news was first reported by CNN's Haley Byrd, who tweeted that Amash, R-Grand Rapids, told her he stepped down from the caucus Monday night.
"I have the highest regard for them, and they're my close friends," Byrd wrote that Amash told her. "I didn't want to be a further distraction for the group."
