Oregon Rep. David Wu (D) filmed a video on Monday evening in which he announces a timeline for his resignation over the allegation he had an unwanted sexual encounter with the young daughter of a campaign contributor, a spokesman told TPM.

The video, a spokesman told TPM, was filmed around 6 p.m. In it, Wu reflects on his time in Congress. Wu has said he’d resign after the debt ceiling crisis was resolved, but hasn’t yet said how he’ll vote on the deal up for a vote in the House this evening.

A spokesman declined to say when exactly Wu planned to resign, whether it would be after Monday’s House vote or after President Obama signs the deal.
