Boehner Urges Rep. Rangel to Step Down as Chairman of Ways & Means Committee
Posted by GOP Leader Press Office on September 4th, 2009
Today House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) sent the following letter to Chairman Rangel, renewing his call that he step aside as Ways & Means Committee Chairman:
Dear Charlie:
When it comes to the relationship between the American people and those they elect to serve them, trust is everything. This is especially true at a difficult time such as this for our nation, when Americans are looking to their government for leadership and solutions, and finding both in short supply. For this reason, I am writing to again respectfully urge that you step aside as chairman of the Committee on Ways & Means until the Ethics Committee has completed a bipartisan investigation of questions relating to your official conduct.
