John Boehner made the decision to resign from congress in a meeting on Friday. He stated that almost no one knew of his decision before making it Friday and said at a news conference, "So before I went to sleep last night, I told my wife, I said, 'You know, I might just make an announcement tomorrow." Mr. Boehner's was trying to think of a solution to keep the government open the rest of the year, but as pressured the conservatives who would not vote for a bill that funded Planned Parenthood, the announcement weakened the chances of a government shutdown.
