Rep. Michael Grimm has officially resigned his congressional seat in a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, Boehner's office confirmed Monday.

The Daily News reported last week that Grimm decided to resign following his guilty plea to felony tax evasion charges. Grimm initially said he planned to stay in office, but changed his mind after speaking to Boehner last Monday.
