On Wednesday, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan announced he would retire from Congress at the end of his term this year. Ryan emphasized that his primary reason for retiring was to spend more time with his teenage children, who were not even born when he was first elected to Congress almost 20 years ago.
Ryan termed his time in Congress as one of the two greatest honors of his life, noting that the other was to be a dad, and having lost his own father at the age of 16, he was determined that his children not only know him as a weekend father.
