Former Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida has announced that he will not be returning to Congress after withdrawing his name for consideration as Donald Trump’s attorney general. Gaetz, who has been in elected office for 14 years, cited personal goals and a desire for new representation in his district as reasons for not seeking re-election. Instead, he plans to continue fighting for Trump from a different platform and will support whoever takes his place in Congress. Gaetz expressed excitement at the prospect of seeing Northwest Florida reach new heights with fresh leadership. He emphasized that he will continue to support Trump and fulfill any requests from the former president. Gaetz’s decision to step away from Congress after eight years is seen as an opportunity for new voices and perspectives to enter the political arena. NBC News reached out to Gaetz’s former office for comment on his future plans.
