Transportation Secretary Ray Lahood told the Chicago Tribune Thursday would only stay in his position for one term and will not run for public office again.
Lahood was a representive in Congress for 14 years. His position in Congress ended in January 2009 when he was nominated to his current post by President Obama.
He ruled out a run for governor, saying “I’m not running for public office anymore.” LaHood expects there will be opportunities for him in the private sector once leaving the government.
