(CNN) -- The resignation of Democratic Rep. David Wu of Oregon officially went into effect at 11:59 p.m. ET Wednesday night. He stepped down after he was accused of making unwanted sexual advances toward a fundraiser's daughter.

Wu announced last week he would resign but postponed his formal resignation until after the House voted on the debt-ceiling bill Monday.

According to a statement released Wednesday, Wu notified Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber and House Speaker John Boehner of his resignation effective Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. ET.

"Serving as a U.S. Congressman has been the greatest honor of my life," Wu said in his handwritten letter to the governor. "There is no other job where you get up each day and ask, 'How can I try to make the world a better place today?'"

Wu voted for the debt bill.

The Satan sandwich vote was not even close..

His place in history as a disgrace to his country and his Party was already secure.

A Democrat, forcing himself on a friend's young daughter, then delaying his resignation to vote for cuts to social programs and a Super Cat Food Committee.

I mean it. Is it soup yet?

but seriously i think that Wu is a poor politician AND person. even Cenk uygur thinks so.

We can't forget this

He seems to have an impulse-control disorder of some sort.
