Arutz Sheva – Eric Cantor, who lost the GOP Virginia primary to a Tea Party candidate, said Wednesday he will step down as House majority leader, AFP reported.
“While I intend to serve out my term as a member of Congress from the 7th District of Virginia, effective July 31st I will be stepping down as majority leader,” Cantor told reporters a day after the loss to economics professor Dave Brat.
