How ironic that Maxine Waters is on the list?

Quote

"He should not step down from his chairmanship," she said. "He should keep working and let the investigation take its course. And if the investgation proves that he has done something wrong, that he should be penalized, then that's the time to consider stepping down or retiring."

Waters also suggested that Rangel's not the only one who's failed to fill out disclosure forms properly.

"I wanna tell you, there are many members who if you go back over all of their records over the years, you're going to find that there are disclosures that were not made."

"Ethics Committee proceedings should not be made public.  That is not the kind of transparency I was talking about."  [/BO mode]
