Currently facing multiple allegations of sexual harassment, veteran Congressman Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., will not run for re-election in 2018, according to a family member who now plans to run for his seat. Interested in Sexual Harassment
Ian Conyers, 29, the grandson of Rep. Conyers’ brother, confirmed the news by phone with ABC News early Tuesday. Ian Conyers, a Michigan state senator, said his uncle plans to make a formal announcement at 10 a.m. on the Mildred Gaddis radio show. The New York Times was first to report the story.
“He is not resigning. He is going to retire,” Ian Conyers told The New York Times. “His doctor advised him that the rigor of another campaign would be too much for him just in terms of his health.”

Per FOX News he is retiring today.
We already knew he was going to retire. We want him to resign now in disgrace.
FOX saying he’s retiring today, and endorsing his son as a replacement.
That guy is the poster-child for term limits.
Yeah, that’s what the people want, ANOTHER Conyer! NOT.
That whole family is rotten to the core.
Throw them out!!
Paid off the accusers with tax payer dough and there’s no talk of expelling him from the Senate.
Yet let him be a white person from Alabama and he’d be satin incarnate.
In corporate America, he would be immediately terminated. Is congress not held to the same standard?
Also, the slush fund that enables congress to sexually harass needs to be ended immediately too.
Getting ready for a dirt nap?
Conyers is a Representative in the House, not a Senator.
The Senate couldn’t expel him if it wanted to.
I hear Uncle John is leaving all his offshore accounts open for his do-gooder nephew.
Does he know who the mother is?
so somehow retiring today, is not the same as resigning?
>> satin incarnate
Really smooth?
Wow! Bad mustache - it looks like it’s growing out of his nose.
So there will still be a Representative Conyers; maybe people in Detroit will be able to sleep at night knowing another big liberal is awaiting in the wings.
Light skinned for a young fella whose uncle ‘wears his blackness well’. They know where their bread is buttered.
My gaydar is definitely pinging on that one!
One less vote for the Dems in the House for the next 13 months.
Belay my last. There will be a special election
Michigan has a Repub governor (Snyder) who will set the special election date

“All states, territories, and districts require special elections to fill any vacant House seats during the first session of a Congress. (We are in the first session now)
During the second session of a Congress, however, procedures often vary depending on the amount of time between the vacancy and the next general election. Section 8 of Title 2, United States Code, provides that a state governor can cause a special election in extraordinary circumstances; namely, a crisis in which the number of House vacancies exceeds 100.”
