Jim DeMint leaving the Senate
Posted by Rachel Weiner on December 6, 2012 at 10:27 am


Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) is leaving Congress in January to lead the Heritage Foundation, the Wall Street Journal reports.

DeMint, a staunch conservative who often clashes with party leadership, was reelected to a second term in 2010. He will depart before the new Congress is sworn in next month.

“Senator DeMint has done more to advance the cause of freedom and liberty in Congress than anyone else since his election,” said Chris Chocola, president of the anti-tax Club for Growth, in a statement congratulating the senator. “We wish him nothing but the best in his new role at Heritage.”
