Elected Republican Conference secretary, the sixth-ranking GOP leadership position in the House, in 2003 and 2005, Doolittle announced in January that he will not be seeking a 10th term. He and his wife, Julie, are under federal investigation related, in part, to employment provided for her by lobbyists, including the disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff.
Sticking Around?
Rep. Roy Blunt ( Mo .)
Blunt, who serves as minority whip, succeeded DeLay as majority whip in 2002. When DeLay stepped down as majority leader in September 2005, Blunt filled that role until John A. Boehner (Ohio) was elected to replace DeLay.
Rep. Jack Kingston (Ga.)
Kingston, who was vice chairman of the Republican Conference from 2003 to 2006, has not announced any plan to retire.
