U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter To Resign From Congress After Holidays

Hunter pleaded guilty to misusing campaign funds, spending on personal luxuries like vacations and pet travel.

Hunter was removed from committee roles in 2018 and faces sentencing in March, with a potential five-year prison term, though a lesser sentence is expected.
