Pelosi Statement on the Resignation of Bob Ney
Washington, D.C. – House
“The Republican leadership has allowed Bob Ney to receive his paycheck and benefits for seven weeks after his admission of guilt to criminal conspiracy charges – it is an embarrassment to this institution and an insult to the American taxpayer. House Republican leaders have a long pattern of covering up and protecting Republican Members, and their culture of corruption comes at great cost to the American people.
“Mr. Ney is the fourth senior Republican to have resigned amid scandal in the 109th Congress. Democrats have a New Direction that would bring integrity and civility back to the U.S. House of Representatives.”
“ Democrats are united in presenting a New Direction for America, one that will make our nation as strong as its people, one that brings opportunity, security, and prosperity to all Americans. ”
Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi
