WASHINGTON – Congressman Robert Pittenger (NC-09) issued this statement after Speaker of the House Paul Ryan announced plans to retire at the end of his term:
“Speaker Ryan is a true patriot who worked with President Trump to make America great again. Together, we have accomplished a lot, including once-in-a-generation tax reform, rebuilding our military after President Obama’s years of neglect, and significant VA reform. This is a demanding job, and Speaker Ryan is making the right decision to go spend time with his kids while he still can. He can retire knowing he and President Trump have worked together to make America stronger.”
