Former Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., explained on Thursday that he is stepping down as president of the University of Florida because of his wife's health.
Sasse explained that his wife, Melissa, suffered an aneurysm and a series of strokes in 2007 and has been diagnosed with epilepsy and is dealing with memory issues.
"It’s been hard, but we’ve faced it together," he continued. "A lot of late nights, a lot of hard decisions, and a lotta ‘what matters most?’ conversations."
