Senate Rules Chairman Tom Apodaca resigned his Senate seat Friday, a few months before his term officially ends.
The resignation opens the door for Apodaca, a Hendersonville Republican, to return to the General Assembly in January as a lobbyist.
A six-month “cooling off period” is required for lawmakers who become lobbyists.
Apodaca is one of the state’s most powerful lawmakers, and he announced last year he wouldn’t seek another term.
