Anthony Weiner officially steps down Tuesday

Updated at 4:07 p.m. ET

When a call is placed today to the office for New York's 9th Congressional District, a helpful voice answers, "Anthony Weiner's office."

That's because, technically, the U.S. House district is still represented by the disgraced Democrat.

Weiner announced his resignation Thursday amid an embarrassing online sex scandal. He didn't submit his official paperwork to House Speaker John Boehner and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi until today, saying his resignation takes effect "midnight Tuesday, June 21."

"It has been an honor to serve the people of Queens and Brooklyn," Weiner says in a letter to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and New York Secretary of State Cesar Perales. The letter is copied to Boehner and Pelosi.

When Weiner's resignation becomes official, the House clerk's office will take over the running of the 9th District congressional offices in Washington and New York -- dealing with constituent services that are pending, such as tracking down Social Security checks, but not voting on legislation.

Dave Arnold, a spokesman for Weiner, told the New York Post that "our offices will be open and fully staffed on Monday."

Weiner admitted to having inappropriate, sexually explicit communications with women via Twitter and Facebook.
