Florida state Rep. Carlos Trujillo will dissolve his law practice, withdraw from the law firm he founded and abandon his seat in the House if he is confirmed as U.S. Ambassador to the Organization of American States.

Trujillo, whose confirmation hearing before the committee on foreign relations was held last month, said in a letter to the State Department legal adviser's office that he would give up his Florida House District 105 seat if he is confirmed. He holds the powerful position of House budget chairman. His confirmation may trigger a special election to fill the seat for the last year of Trujillo's term.

In the letter, Trujillo also said if confirmed he would withdraw from his law firm, Trujillo, Vargas, Gonzalez & Hevia. The firm will drop his name.

As a White House nominee for the post, Trujillo produced an asset, income and liability statement that showed his annual income for his solo practice and his work with law partners to be $837,113. He earns another $22,272 a year as a Florida state representative. The documents also detailed outstanding loans and income from some rental properties.

Trujillo, who was an early Trump supporter and earlier this year was named one of four U.S. representatives to the United Nations' General Assembly, said he believes he will earn about $150,000 a year as ambassador to the OAS.

“The opportunity to serve your country doesn't come up often and I'm honored to be in consideration—so it wasn't a tough decision at all,” Carlos Trujillo said.

According to the bio on his firm website, Trujillo's practice includes litigating commercial disputes, representing homeowners in insurance litigation, and defending clients in white-collar crime. He is a former assistant state attorney.

It is unclear when the Senate will vote on Trujillo's confirmation, but it is possible it will confirm a batch of nominees at once—before the year ends, Trujillo said.

The OAS is a regional organization that brings together the countries of the Americas to constitute the main governmental forum in the Hemisphere, promoting democracy, human rights, security, and development. Trujillo speaks fluent Spanish.
