Michigan Governor Rick Snyder said on Friday the state would hold a special election on Nov. 6, 2018, to replace Representative John Conyers, the Democrat who resigned this week amid accusations of sexual misconduct.
It’s time for Democrats to remember that the sitting President of the United States still has paid no political or legal price for his own behavior.
At her weekly news conference, House Democratic Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) told Rep. John Conyers that zero tolerance of sexual harassment means zero tolerance for all and that he must resign.
The first consequence since the discussion of sexual harassment in Congress began has come as Rep. John Conyers has stepped down from his position as the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee.
President Obama said today while signing the Violence Against Women Act, “I promise you this – not just as your President, but as a son, as a husband, as a father – I’m going to keep at it.”
