Erik Wasson, who covers U.S. economic and fiscal policy for The Hill, has resigned for a job at Bloomberg News, reports Nick Massella of FishbowlDC.

Massella writes, “A 4:08 pm email from The Hill’s Peter Schroeder to staff confirmed Wasson’s jump to Bloomberg. Thanks birdie! Internal memo after the jump.

From: Peter Schroeder

Ladies and gents,

You may have heard, or you may have not, but Erik Wasson is soon departing our fine publication to join Bloomberg. After devoting the finest years of his life to our august outlet, it’s only fitting that we send him off on Friday.

We’ll be meeting at The Passenger at After Work O’Clock. Please pass this invite along to anyone you think might want to come — all are welcome.

Pete”
