Rep. Antonio Delgado (D-N.Y.) formally gave notice during a brief pro forma session of the House of Representatives that he will resign his office on May 25.

Delgado’s retirement was announced weeks back, when Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul tapped him as her lieutenant governor and running mate in the upcoming gubernatorial election. On May 25, Delgado will be officially sworn into the office.
