US Attorney General Resigns, Says "Job Is Done"
Commerce Secretary Don Evans, a close Bush friend, has also quit his post.
They are the first departures from President Bush's cabinet since he was re-elected for another four-year term last Tuesday.
Mr Ashcroft, who drew up the Patriot Act, which gave the FBI and other agencies powers to tap phones, access private medical and library records, track internet usage and detain immigrants, said, in a letter announcing his departure, that the objective of removing the civil liberties of Americans had been achieved.
The president has responded by saying that he appreciated his service.
