Cicilline\u2019s staff will continue to operate the district\u2019s Rhode Island and Washington, D.C., offices until a new representative is chosen in a special election, his office said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe chance to lead the Rhode Island Foundation was unexpected, but it is an extraordinary opportunity to have an even more direct and meaningful impact on the lives of residents of our state,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Cicilline easily sailed to reelection in his solidly blue Rhode Island district in November\u2019s midterm elections, securing about 64 percent of the vote.<\/p>\n<p>His decision to leave Congress comes after longtime Rhode Island Rep. James Langevin (D) stepped down from the state\u2019s only other congressional seat last year, after more than 20 years in office. He was replaced by Rep. Seth Magaziner (D) in the state\u2019s first open congressional race since 2010.<\/p>\n<p>A special election for Cicilline\u2019s seat cannot be scheduled until he officially resigns from office, according to The Boston Globe.<\/p>\n<p><em>Updated at 10:02 a.m.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
