Roll Call is reporting that Arizona Congressman John Shadegg is retiring at the end of his current term:

Rep. John Shadegg (R-Ariz.) will announce this evening that he will retire from the House upon the conclusion of his current term, according to a well-placed Republican source.

Shadegg is one of the few Republicans in the House who has held true to fiscal conservatism during the Bush years.
