GOP Rep. Gonzales ends re-election bid amid ethics probe

A GOP Congressman facing an ethics investigation is withdrawing from his re-election race. The decision by Republican Congressman Tony Gonzales of Texas to end his re-election bid came after he admitted an affair with a former staff member who later died by suicide. But Gonzales vowed to finish out his term in Congress. This week, the House Ethics Committee opened an investigation into his conduct, prompting calls from GOP leadership to end his reelection bid, and from others in Congress to resign.
