A Califonia paper criticizes a NY Congressman on ethics - why no NY paper?The Sacramento Bee published an editorial criticizing local Congressman John Doolittle for, paying his wife a 15% commission on contributions to his campaign committee. The Bee points out that they can find only 1 other Congressman doing that - NY's own John Sweeney who pays his wife 10%. The Bee makes a strong case that this may violate House ethics rules. Read the editorial and see but wonder why no NY paper (to my knowledge) has criticized Sweeney for this action. Post new comment |
