Sen. Al Franken will step down on Jan. 2, a spokesman for the Minnesota Democrat said Wednesday.
Franken announced earlier this month that he would resign from the Senate in the face of sexual harassment allegations. But he did not announce a date for when he would officially leave the chamber.
Franken said earlier Wednesday that he would deliver a series of speeches on the Senate floor before he leaves the chamber.

Not soon enough. He was always self-righteous.
I'll only believe it when I see it. If he was really resigning, I think he would have done it already. The only reason he wouldn't, is if there is some benefit to delaying is departure (more pension money?). I think he might just renege on his "promise" to resign, and force his colleagues to force him out, counting on all the other corrupt bastards to allow him to stay.
