Debbie Wasserman Schultz will resign her position as chair of the Democratic National Committee following the party’s convention in Philadelphia this week.
“Going forward, the best way for me to accomplish those goals [of winning the presidency for Hillary Clinton] is to step down as Party Chair at the end of this convention,” Wasserman Schultz, who represents Florida in Congress, said in a statement, reported by Politico. “As Party Chair, this week I will open and close the Convention and I will address our delegates about the stakes involved in this election not only for Democrats, but for all Americans.”
