Minnesota Public Radio reported Wednesday that Sen. Alan S. “Al” Franken (D.-Minn.) intends to resign in the wake of
six women accusing him of inappropriate behavior.
A Democratic official who has spoken to Al Franken and
key aides says Franken will resign his Minnesota Senate seat on
Thursday, the official tells MPR News.
The official spoke to Franken and separately to Franken’s staff. A
staff member told the official that Franken had gone to his Washington
home to discuss his plans with family.
MPR News agreed to withhold the official’s name because the official
wanted to give Franken the chance to talk about his decision in his own
words.
