He's a popular politician who easily won re-election and was in no danger of ever losing his seat, and is now stepping down not even a year into his term to do something that had likely been in the works since before he won re-election, likely because he didn't like being a lame duck member of congress. Couldn't be bothered to finish the term he promised he would and he's not leaving because of some sort of medical issue, just greed. Actions like these are exactly what chips away at what little faith people still have in politicians and is a smack in the fact to his constituents.

I honestly expected better from someone like Cicillini. He really seemed to be the rare member of congress that actually cared.
