Republican Rep. Nick Sauer allegedly opened an account in the former girlfriend's name and then posted the pictures as a ploy to lure men into "graphic conversations."
Rep. Nick Sauer, a first-term Republican, wrote a letter Wednesday to the Clerk of the House of Representatives in Illinois tendering his resignation.
"As a result of the allegations by Kate Kelly, a former girlfriend, I have decided to resign," Sauer wrote.
"My ability to fulfill my obligations as a State Representative and public servant will be affected by the distraction of addressing these allegations," he wrote. "After speaking with my family, I feel it best to step away from my public responsibilities."
According to the Chicago Tribune, "Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner said Sauer's departure was 'the right thing to do' but said his political nemesis Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan has fostered a culture of abuse at the Capitol."
