WASHINGTON (CNN) — The embattled head of the federal government’s top contracting agency has resigned amid multiple controversies over her leadership, including allegations that she tried to enlist agency officials to assist Republican political hopefuls. “It has been a great privilege to serve our nation and a great president,” Lurita Doan said in a statement released by the General Services Administration, which buys and manages billions of dollars worth of federal government property. Doan became GSA administrator in May 2006 and was under fire from nearly the beginning of her tenure. |
