Rep. Martha Roby (R-Ala.) announced Friday she will not seek a sixth term in Congress, further shrinking the ranks of Republican women in the House.
The Alabama Republican — who narrowly escaped a bitter primary fight last year — had become a controversial figure in her home state after she disavowed her support for Donald Trump before he was elected president. Roby marks the fifth House Republican, and third this week, to announce a decision to retire.
