The following groups today urged incoming House Speaker John Boehner to keep the Office of Congressional Ethics up and running, and in fact to strengthen it:
The League of Women Voters, Common Cause, Taxpayers for Common Sense, The National Taxpayers Union, Judicial Watch, Public Citizen, The Campaign Legal Center, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, Democracy 21 and U.S. PIRG. The Tea Party is also in on the act, expressing support for preserving OCE as well.
Thanks to the work of the OCE, which was created by Speaker Pelosi, Rep. Charlie Rangel, whom Tea Party Caucus member Frank Guinta called a "corrupt politician," was formally censured by the House.
Representative-Elect Guinta will go to Washington saddled with his own unresolved controversy over significant campaign finance discrepancies. He refused comment to the Washington Post when asked about it.
